The comment seems a bit odd to me. We cannot use the gfn attribute from the
attribute xarray simply because here we need to determine if *this access* is
to private memory, which may not match the gfn attribute. Even if there are
other ways to prevent an infinite EPT violation loop, we still need to check
the shared bit in the faulting GPA.
