Agreed.

Could we also add another helper kvm_mmu_cap_honors_guest_mtrrs(), which
does not check kvm_arch_has_noncoherent_dma()?

+static inline bool kvm_mmu_cap_honors_guest_mtrrs(struct kvm *kvm)
+{
+       return !!shadow_memtype_mask;
+}

This is because in patch 4 I plan to do the EPT zap when
noncoherent_dma_count goes from 1 to 0.
