[PATCH 0/2] Fix walk_addr() page fault error codes

[Avi Kivity]

This patchset fixes bugs in page fault error code generation.  With the patches
applied, the access.flat unit test now passes with no errors on shadow, npt,
and ept.

  KVM: MMU: Only indicate a fetch fault in page fault error code if nx
    is enabled

[PATCH 1/2] KVM: MMU: Only indicate a fetch fault in page fault error code if nx is enabled

[Avi Kivity]

Bit 4 of the page fault error code is set only if EFER.NX is set.

[PATCH 2/2] KVM: MMU: Keep going on permission error

[Avi Kivity]

Real hardware disregards permission errors when computing page fault error
code bit 0 (page present).  Do the same.

This generates (false positive) build warnings here:

We should never get here with rsvd_fault == true - redundant check?

We would only need to check for eperm here if we jumped above.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.

You already pushed some update, don't you? Then I'm afraid I have to
report that the problem persists.

Yes, I did.  I can't believe I didn't even compile test it.

Sorry, will fix for real now.
