Add a WARN_ON_ONCE() sanity check to verify that a nested PML Full VM-Exit is only synthesized when the original VM-Exit from L2 was an EPT Violation. While KVM can fallthrough to kvm_mmu_do_page_fault() if an EPT Misconfig occurs on a stale MMIO SPTE, KVM should not treat the access as a write (there isn't enough information to know *what* the access was), i.e. KVM should never try to insert a PML entry in that case.

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 reStructuredText 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.
