While indeed unnecessary for pv_ro_page_fault(), pv_map_ldt_shadow_page() may run when guest user mode is active, and hence may need to switch to the kernel page tables in order to retrieve an LDT page mapping. Fixes: 9ff970564764 ("x86/mm: drop guest_get_eff_l1e()") Reported-by: Manuel Bouyer <bouyer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx> --- Manuel, could you test this again, just to be on the safe side before we throw it in (at which point we could then also again add a Tested-by)?
