Since each memslot may also not be backed by restricted memory, we
should also check if the memslot has been set up for private memory
with

if (fault->is_private && kvm_slot_can_be_private(slot))
return kvm_faultin_pfn_private(fault);

Without this check, restrictedmem_get_page will get called with NULL
in slot->restricted_file, which causes a NULL pointer dereference.
