Add a new dedicated API, kvm_faultin_pfn(), for servicing guest page faults, i.e. for getting pages/pfns that will be mapped into the guest via an mmu_notifier-protected KVM MMU. Keep struct kvm_follow_pfn buried in internal code, as having __kvm_faultin_pfn() take "out" params is actually cleaner for several architectures, e.g. it allows the caller to have its own "page fault" structure without having to marshal data to/from kvm_follow_pfn. Long term, common KVM would ideally provide a kvm_page_fault structure, a la x86's struct of the same name. But all architectures need to be converted to a common API before that can happen.

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 reStructuredText 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.
