kvm_mmu_page_role is 32 bits, even if we make 'smm' a 1-bit field and
throw away its padding we'll end up with 19 bits ...
(Generally speaking, I would prefer to leave some space for future
extension: we only have 3 'struct kvm_mmu' per vcpu so we're talking
about 12 bytes. We can, of course, change types here in future - this in
not a stable ABI or anything - but the one doing that will have to check
all users and this is always error-prone.)

(I was told that union aliasing is UB, however, it's all over kernel so
it's unlikely that gcc's behavior is ever going to change).
I like your idea, I'll add a couple of BUILD_BUG_ONs in v2. Thanks!
