A few differences make it difficult to refactor this clearly:

  - This handler is mainly used for loading initial contents into guest
    image before booting and doesn't rely on the MMU lock being held. It
    also *can't* be called with MMU lock held because it suffers from the
    same issue with mem_attr_update() hook where it needs to take a
    mutex as part of unmapping from directmap when transitioning page to
    private state in RMP table
  - This handler wants to return an error code, as opposed to existing
    handlers which return a true/false values which are passed along to
    MMU notifier call-site and handled differently.
  - This handler wants to terminate iterating through memslots as soon
    as it encounters the first failure, whereas the existing handlers
    expect to be called for each slot regardless of return value.

So it's a pretty different use-case that adds enough complexity to
__kvm_handle_hva_range() that it might need be worth refactoring it,
since it complicates some bits that are closely tied to dealing with
invalidations where the extra complexity probably needs to be
well-warranted.

I took a stab at it here for reference, but even with what seems to be
the minimal set of changes it doesn't save on any code and ultimately I
think it makes it harder to make sense of what going on:

  https://github.com/mdroth/linux/commit/976c5fb708f7babe899fd80e27e19f8ba3f6818d

Is there a better approach?
