I think this sets a bad precedent.

There are consequences for converting pages between shared and private.
Doing it on a vmalloc() mapping is guaranteed to fracture the underlying
EPT/SEPT mappings.

How does this work with load_unaligned_zeropad()?  Couldn't it be
running around poking at one of these vmalloc()'d pages via the direct
map during a shared->private conversion before the page has been accepted?
