Your draft is indeed a bit simpler.

Should I send a cleaned-up version as v2?

I would allocate the table on the first call to kvm_vcpu_init_nested()
and not in kvm_init_nested(), so it cannot leak if VM creation
fails. 

There's another issue in the current code: the ptdump debugfs file
keeps the raw mmu pointer as its private data. I would add that to the
commit message.

Thanks,
Karl
