Ugh, magic?  That code is complete garbage.  It worked to fix the selftest issue
because the selftest identity maps the relevant guest code.

The entire idea is a hack.  If KVM gets into an infinite loop because the guest
is attempting to fetch from MMIO, then the #NPF/#PF should have the FETCH bit set
in the error code.  I.e. I believe the below change should fix the original issue,
at which point we can revert the above.  I'll test today and hopefully get a patch
sent out.
