We should be careful about vmalloc memory here. kvm_kaddr_to_phys will
happily return the physical address but the range is not guaranteed to
be physically contiguous. It doesn't look like this series ever shares
vmalloc memory, but we should make it harder for users of this function
to shoot themselves in the foot.

One option would be to turn this into a loop and call pkvm_share_hyp on
each physical page. But since the hypervisor has no means of making
those pages virtually contigous anyway, probably not the right approach.

We could make it possible to share vmalloc buffer that fit into a page
and reject others. There we still need to be careful about the upper
bound because the way it's written now, 'to' can be treated as
exclusive and 'kvm_kaddr_to_phys(to)' would not always return the page
after 'kvm_kaddr_to_phys(from)'.
