Re: [PATCH v12 50/84] KVM: VMX: Use __kvm_faultin_page() to get APIC access page/pfn

Use __kvm_faultin_page() get the APIC access page so that KVM can
precisely release the refcounted page, i.e. to remove yet another user
of kvm_pfn_to_refcounted_page().  While the path isn't handling a guest
page fault, the semantics are effectively the same; KVM just happens to
be mapping the pfn into a VMCS field instead of a secondary MMU.

Even if you don't use it, call the out argument "writable".
