One page can be unmapped from userspace, then HVA seems legal, but in fact,
PFN is illegal.

Forgot to drop the additional reference acquired by gfn_to_pfn ?

Hum, gfn_to_hva assumes the slot information is accurate, which is not
the case if you simply munmap a page in the middle of a slot... we
should provide a helper in userspace, and make sure nothing bad can
happen otherwise. 

Anyway, why don't you just let kvm_mmu_page_fault handle instruction
emulation instead of opencoding it in handle_ept_violation ?

Sadly, yeah... :(

Yes. But maintain a list in kernel seems a little complex for it. I checked 
the callings of gfn_to_hva, seems most of them are safe with a inaccurate 
result(not sure about host_largepage_backed, seems this would be affected if 
one 4k page was unmapped inside a large page).

It didn't work as expect. Checking it.

Oh, seems it didn't work due to my fault... Update the patch, thanks for 
reminder. :)
