Are you thinking of checking slot->arch.rmap[0] directly? That should work indeed.

-	kvm_mmu_init_tdp_mmu(kvm);
+	if (!kvm_mmu_init_tdp_mmu(kvm))
+		activate_shadow_mmu(kvm);
Doesn't come into play yet, but I would strongly prefer to open code setting the
necessary flag instead of relying on the helper to never fail.


You mean

kvm->arch.shadow_mmu_active = !kvm_mmu_init_tdp_mmu(kvm);

(which would assign to alloc_memslot_rmaps instead if shadow_mmu_active is removed)? That makes sense.
