The vm_dead was added because mirror EPT will KVM_BUG_ON() if there is an
attempt to set the mirror EPT entry when it is already present. And the
unaccepted memory access will trigger an EPT violation for a mirror PTE that is
already set. I think this is a better solution irrespective of the vm_dead
changes.

But hmm, tangentially related, but Yan do we have a similar problem with
KVM_PRE_FAULT_MEMORY after we started setting pre_fault_allowed during TD
finalization?
