Where is it called for that purpose? The only place where gva_to_gpa
callback is called is in kvm/kvm_mips_emul.c:kvm_mips_emulate_(store|load)

So guest KSEG1 registers is mapped to 0xA0000000-0xBFFFFFFF ranges just
like on a host? Can you give corresponding segment names to those ranges
Guest User address space: 0x00000000 -> 0x40000000 (useg?)
Guest Kernel Unmapped: 0x40000000 -> 0x60000000 (kseg0?)
Guest Kernel Mapped: 0x60000000 -> 0x80000000 (?)
