The fix looks OK to me, but some comment below.

The use of gfn_to_hva_read is misleading. The code can still write into
gfn. Lets rename gfn_to_hva_read to gfn_to_hva_prot() and gfn_to_hva()
to gfn_to_hva_write().
This makes me think are there other places where gfn_to_hva() was
used, but gfn_to_hva_prot() should have been?
- kvm_host_page_size() looks incorrect. We never use huge page to map
read only memory slots currently.
- kvm_handle_bad_page() also looks incorrect and may cause incorrect
address to be reported to userspace.
- kvm_setup_async_pf() also incorrect. Makes all page fault on read
only slot to be sync.
- kvm_vm_fault() one looks OK since function assumes write only slots,
but it is obsolete and should be deleted anyway.
Others in generic and x86 code looks OK, somebody need to check ppc and
arm code.
