From: David Stevens <redacted> Make it so that __kvm_follow_pfn does not imply FOLL_GET. This allows callers to resolve a gfn when the associated pfn has a valid struct page that isn't being actively refcounted (e.g. tail pages of non-compound higher order pages). For a caller to safely omit FOLL_GET, all usages of the returned pfn must be guarded by a mmu notifier. This also adds a is_refcounted_page out parameter to kvm_follow_pfn that is set when the returned pfn has an associated struct page with a valid refcount. Callers that don't pass FOLL_GET should remember this value and use it to avoid places like kvm_is_ad_tracked_page that assume a non-zero refcount.

And how? Any place to check the invalidate seq? B.R. Yu
