Could you send the patch in a new thread, please?

I will add my reviewed-by then.

It still lacks the parts that do write protection for sp->gfn.
kvm_vcpu_write_protect_gfn() has to handle the two worlds.
account_shadowed() and kvm_slot_page_track_add_page() have also
to handle the two worlds.

And I don't think there is any page-table in SMM-world, so
kvm_slot_page_track_is_active() can just skip the SMM-world
and check the non-SMM world only.

Thanks
Lai
