Use __kvm_mmu_new_pgd() via kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu() to emulate VMFUNC[EPTP_SWITCH] instead of nuking all MMUs. EPTP_SWITCH is the EPT equivalent of MOV to CR3, i.e. is a perfect fit for the common PGD flow, the only hiccup being that A/D enabling is buried in the EPTP. But, that is easily handled by bouncing through kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu(). Explicitly request a guest TLB flush if VPID is disabled. Per Intel's SDM, if VPID is disabled, "an EPTP-switching VMFUNC invalidates combined mappings associated with VPID 0000H (for all PCIDs and for all EP4TA values, where EP4TA is the value of bits 51:12 of EPTP)". Note, this technically is a very bizarre bug fix of sorts if L2 is using PAE paging, as avoiding the full MMU reload also avoids incorrectly reloading the PDPTEs, which the SDM explicitly states are not touched: If PAE paging is in use, an EPTP-switching VMFUNC does not load the four page-directory-pointer-table entries (PDPTEs) from the guest-physical address in CR3. The logical processor continues to use the four guest-physical addresses already present in the PDPTEs. The guest-physical address in CR3 is not translated through the new EPT paging structures (until some operation that would load the PDPTEs). In addition to optimizing L2's MMU shenanigans, avoiding the full reload also optimizes L1's MMU as KVM_REQ_MMU_RELOAD wipes out all roots in both root_mmu and guest_mmu.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
