Move the sanity check that hardware never sets bits that collide with KVM- define synthetic bits from kvm_mmu_page_fault() to npf_interception(), i.e. make the sanity check #NPF specific. The legacy #PF path already WARNs if _any_ of bits 63:32 are set, and the error code that comes from VMX's EPT Violatation and Misconfig is 100% synthesized (KVM morphs VMX's EXIT_QUALIFICATION into error code flags). Add a compile-time assert in the legacy #PF handler to make sure that KVM- define flags are covered by its existing sanity check on the upper bits. Opportunistically add a description of PFERR_IMPLICIT_ACCESS, since we are removing the comment that defined it.

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.
