Nit: you could do this check in the walker directly and check the return
value of kvm_pgtable_walk() instead. That would allow to get rid of
struct s2_walk_data.

Also, though the compiler might be able to optimize, maybe simplify the
level check to level == (KVM_PGTABLE_MAX_LEVELS - 1)?
Yup, all good points. I guess I could do the same in my other series
that parses the userspace PT to extract the level.
Well, actually, let me take that back. I think something like you have
would be useful, but in pgtable.c directly and re-usable for stage-1 and
stage-2 walks. Maybe something like the below (totally untested)?

I could use such a walker in several places as well in the memory
ownership series:

 - following the idea of [1], I could remove the
   kvm_pgtable_stage2_find_range() function entirely;

 - [2] defines 2 custom walkers that do nothing but walk host stage-2
   and hyp stage-1 page-tables to check permissions and such --  they
   could be removed/re-implemented easily as well.

And you seem to need something similar here, so clearly there is a need.
WDYT?
So FWIW, I've now pushed out an updated series for the THP changes[1],
and you will find a similar patch at the base of the branch. Please
have a look and let me know what you think!

Thanks,

	M.
