I'd prefer to do what we do for page faults. That approach avoids the need for a
comment to document NULL and avoids a conditional when RETPOLINE is not enabled.
Might be worth renaming get_cr3 => get_guest_cr3 though.
#ifdef CONFIG_RETPOLINE
if (mmu->get_guest_pgd = get_guest_cr3)
return kvm_read_cr3(vcpu);
#endif
return mmu->get_guest_pgd(vcpu);

I'd much prefer we don't provide an @vcpu-only variant and force the caller to
provide the mmu.
