Please don't add more stats, instead add tracepoints which can be
converted to stats by userspace.
Would be good to have both guest and host tracepoints.

Ok. so token is globally unique. We're limited to 4096 vcpus, I guess
that's fine. Wraparound at 1M faults/vcpu, what's the impact? failure
if we have 1M faulting processes on one vcpu?
I guess that's fine too.

!! !needed, bool autoconverts. But > 0 is more readable.

This goto is pretty ugly. How about:
async = false;
if (can_do_async_pf(&async)) {
}
if (async && !setup())
async = false;
if (async)
...
or something.

This repetition is ugly too.

This nice cache needs to be outside apf to reduce complexity for
reviewers and since it is useful for others.
Would be good to have memslot-cached kvm_put_guest() and kvm_get_guest().

All those #ifdefs can be eliminated with virt/kvm/apf.[ch].

100 == too high. At 16 vcpus, this allows 1600 kernel threads to wait
for I/O.
Would have been best if we could ask for a page to be paged in
asynchronously.
