I think a comment before the function, similar to setup_ept() would be
nice. In particular, it would be helpful to say that setup_eptp()
returns 0 upon success and also summarize the function's arguments,
hpa and enable_ad.

Is the text in this print statement consistent with the check? It
looks like the check is saying that ept_vpid should have the
EPT_CAP_UC or EPT_CAP_WB set---not that it shouldn't have both set.

If you add the comment above, it would also be nice to extend this
comment to summarize the return value and enable_ad arg.

Should you check the return value of setup_eptp() here?

I'd move pml4 = alloc_page() above this memset.

Should you check the return value here?
