this is nesting specific. why not moving it to the nested_alloc()?

Nesting is currently a use case for userspace I/O page faults, but this
design should be general enough to support other scenarios as well.


Do we allow user page table w/o nesting?

What would be a scenario in which the user doesn't manage the
page table but still want to handle the I/O page fault? The fault
should always be delivered to the owner managing the page table...

I am not sure. But if nesting is the only case for user page table, it's
fine to move above code to the nested_alloc helper.
