KVM's own accesses to guest memory (i.e., places where it does
copy_to/from_user) will go through GUP. By default, that's just how it
would work. What I'm saying is that we aren't going to add anything
extra to have "KVM Userfault" prevent KVM from doing a
copy_to/from_user (like how I had it in the RFC, where KVM Userfault
can block the translation of gfn -> hva).

vhost's accesses to guest memory will be the same as KVM's: it will go
through copy_to/from_user.

Hopefully that's a little clearer. :)
