Thanks for the new version

Main changes since v1 [1]:
- Added x86 support for mapping guest_memfd at the host, enabled
  only for the KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM type.

Nice!

- Require setting memslot userspace_addr for guest_memfd slots
  even if shared, and remove patches that worked around that.
- Brought in more of the infrastructure from the patch series
  that allows restricted mapping of guest_memfd backed memory.

Ah, that explains why we see the page_type stuff in here now :)

- Renamed references to "mappable" -> "shared".
- Expanded the selftests.
- Added instructions to test on x86 and arm64 (below).

Very nice!


I assume there is still no page conversion happening -- or is there now that the page_stuff thing is in here?

Would be good to spell out what's supported and what's still TBD regarding mmap support.
