KVM: MMU: fix infinite fault access retry
We have two issues in current code: - if target gfn is used as its page table, guest will refault then kvm will use small page size to map it. We need two #PF to fix its shadow page table - sometimes, say a exception is triggered during vm-exit caused by #PF (see handle_exception() in vmx.c), we remove all the shadow pages shadowed by the target gfn before go into page fault path, it will cause infinite loop: delete shadow pages shadowed by the gfn -> try to use large page size to map the gfn -> retry the access ->... To fix these, we can adjust page size early if the target gfn is used as page table Signed-off-by: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
