WARN if __kvm_faultin_pfn() generates a "no slot" pfn, and gracefully handle the unexpected behavior instead of continuing on with dangerous state, e.g. tdp_mmu_map_handle_target_level() _only_ checks fault->slot, and so could install a bogus PFN into the guest. The existing code is functionally ok, because kvm_faultin_pfn() pre-checks all of the cases that result in KVM_PFN_NOSLOT, but it is unnecessarily unsafe as it relies on __gfn_to_pfn_memslot() getting the _exact_ same memslot, i.e. not a re-retrieved pointer with KVM_MEMSLOT_INVALID set. And checking only fault->slot would fall apart if KVM ever added a flag or condition that forced emulation, similar to how KVM handles writes to read-only memslots.

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.
