This patch implements logic to make sure that either a
page-fault/page-fault-vmexit or a nested-page-fault-vmexit
is propagated back to the guest.

Why is this needed?  Queue an ordinary page fault page; the injection
code should check the page fault intercept and #VMEXIT if needed.
This is needed because we could have a nested page fault or an ordinary
page fault which need to be propagated.

Right.

Why is pio_copy_data() changed? One would think that it would be an all-or-nothing affair.
