In the new changes we are working on in the other thread this helper is moved into arch/x86/kvm/vmx/common.h for only Intel side use, and renamed: gpa_on_private_root(). It should address the SNP confusion concerns at least. On the private and mirrored point, the mixing of private and mirrored in the current code is definitely confusing. I think changing the names like that (private_mirror), could make it easier to understand, even if it creates longer lines. I tried to create some abstraction where the MMU understood the concept of general mirroring EPT roots, then checked a helper to see if the vm_type mirrored "private" memory before calling out to all the private helpers. I thought it would let us pretend more of this stuff was generic. But it was turning out a bit silly. So think I will just stick with updating the names for the next revision.
