This piece of code is specific to KVM. Please move it to kvm-all.c and
invoke a wrapper function here. As kvm accelerator isn't necessarily
enabled, the function call should be guarded by kvm_enabled().

And I think the error message can be omitted because the failure doesn't
impact functionality; just a few more pages will be allocated by KVM.
