Hardcode the EPT page-walk level for L2 to be 4 levels, as KVM's MMU
currently also hardcodes the page walk level for nested EPT to be 4
levels. The L2 guest is all but guaranteed to soft hang on its first
instruction when L1 is using EPT, as KVM will construct 4-level page
tables and then tell hardware to use 5-level page tables.
Fixes: 855feb6736 ("KVM: MMU: Add 5 level EPT & Shadow page table support.")

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 Restructured Text 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.
