Not sure I even want a gpc of length 1 to work at INVALID_GPA; I don't think it's the offset+length check we want to be looking at? If we've activated the gpc with gpa==INVALID_GPA, surely the right thing to do is just let it fail (perhaps with an explicit check or just letting the memslot lookup fail). After fixing that WARN_ON be if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!kvm_is_error_gpa(gpa) && !kvm_is_error_hva(uhva)))
