Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 5/6] kvm, mem-hotplug: Reload L1's apic access page
 on migration when L2 is running.

Hi Gleb,

By the way, when testing nested vm, I started L1 and L2 vm with
         -cpu XXX, -x2apic

But with or with out this patch 5/6, when migrating apic access page,
the nested vm didn't corrupt.

We cannot migrate L2 vm because it pinned some other pages in memory.
Without this patch, if we migrate apic access page, I thought L2 vm will
corrupt. But it didn't.

Did I made any mistake you can obviously find out ?

Thanks.
