The fault path looks like this in KVM x86 mmu code:

direct_page_fault()
-> kvm_faultin_pfn()
   -> __gfn_to_pfn_memslot()
      -> hva_to_pfn()
         -> hva_to_pfn_{slow,fast}()
            -> get_user_pages_*()      <<<<==== This is where the
                                                reference is taken

Next step is to create the mappings which is done in below functions:

-> kvm_tdp_mmu_map() / __direct_map()

   -> Within this function (patch 1/6), I call sev_pin_spte to take an extra 
      reference to pin it using get_page. 

      Is it possible to use pin_user_pages(FOLL_LONGTERM) here? Wouldn't that 
      be equivalent to "take over" solution that you are suggesting?

Reference is released when direct_page_fault() completes using put_page()

Later when the SEV VM is shutting down, I can do unpin_user_pages() for the 
pinned pages.
