Yes, it is, i just want to detect BUG for KVM, it helps us to know if "ept misconfig" is the
real MMIO or the BUG. I noticed some "ept misconfig" BUGs is reported before, so i think doing
this is necessary, and i think it is not too bad, since walking spte hierarchy is lockless,
it really fast.

Okay.  We can later see if it show up on profiles.
