But KVM_REQ_GET_NESTED_STATE_PAGES is not check until next
vcpu_enter_guest() entry ?
Sure, but that's why this call to ->check_guest_maps() comes just a few
lines *before* the 'if (kvm_cpu_exit_request(vcpu))' that will bounce
us back out so that we go through vcpu_enter_guest() from the start
again?
Yes, I had forgotten that...
Thanks,
