Subject: [PATCH v16 036/116] KVM: x86/mmu: Disallow fast page fault on private GPA

From: Isaku Yamahata <isaku.yamahata@...el.com>

TDX requires TDX SEAMCALL to operate Secure EPT instead of direct memory
access and TDX SEAMCALL is heavy operation.  Fast page fault on private GPA
doesn't make sense.  Disallow fast page fault on private GPA.
