Hmm, and tdp_page_fault()->fast_page_fault() always fails on
!is_access_allowed(error_code, new_spte), it never handles the faults.
And I see some ->mmu_lock contention:

	spin_lock(&vcpu->kvm->mmu_lock);
	__direct_map();
	spin_unlock(&vcpu->kvm->mmu_lock);

So it might be that we setup guest memory wrongly and never get
advantages of TPD and fast page faults?
