[PATCH] KVM: x86/mmu: Guard against collision with KVM-defined PFERR_IMPLICIT_ACCESS

[Sean Christopherson]

Add an assertion in kvm_mmu_page_fault() to ensure the error code provided
by hardware doesn't conflict with KVM's software-defined IMPLICIT_ACCESS
flag.  In the unlikely scenario that future hardware starts using bit 48
for a hardware-defined flag, preserving the bit could result in KVM
incorrectly interpreting the unknown flag as KVM's IMPLICIT_ACCESS flag.

WARN so that any such conflict can be surfaced to KVM developers and
resolved, but otherwise ignore the bit as KVM can't possibly rely on a
flag it knows nothing about.

Note, Isaku already posted an RFC version of this, but that doesn't have
Isaku's SoB, so I'm taking the easy (for me) route so that this can land
sooner than later.
