Introduce a new request type, KVM_REQ_HV_INJECT_INTERCEPT which allows injecting out-of-band Hyper-V secure intercepts. For now only memory access intercepts are supported. These are triggered when access a GPA protected by a higher VTL. The memory intercept metadata is filled based on the GPA provided through struct kvm_vcpu_hv_intercept_info, and injected into the guest through SynIC message.

IMHO memory protection violations should result in a user space exit. User space can then validate what to do with the violation and if necessary inject an intercept.
That means from an API point of view, you want a new exit reason (violation) and an ioctl that allows you to transmit the violating CPU state into the target vCPU. I don't think the injection should even know that the source of data for the violation was a vCPU.
