KVM_XEN_INVALID_GPA absolutely doesn't belong in common code.  Not to mention
that it will break when Paolo (rightly) moves it to an x86 header.

This needs a comment.  I know what it's doing, but it wasn't obvious at first
glance, and it definitely won't be intuitive for readers that aren't intimately
familiar with memslots.

This formatting is funky.  I also think it would be worth adding a helper to pair
with kvm_is_error_hva().

But!  kvm_is_error_gpa() already exists, and it very, very sneakily does a memslot
lookup and checks for a valid HVA.

s390 people, any objection to renaming kvm_is_error_gpa() to something like
kvm_gpa_has_memslot() or kvm_gpa_is_in_memslot()?  s390 is the only code that
uses the existing helper.

That would both to free up the name to pair with kvm_is_error_hva(), and would
make it obvious what the helper does; I was quite surprised that "error" means
"is covered by a valid memslot".

Back to this code, then we can have a slightly cleaner:

	unsigned long page_offset = kvm_is_error_gpa(gpa) ? offset_in_page(gpa) :
							    offset_in_page(uhva);


And I think it's worth asserting that exactly _one_ of GPA or HVA is valid, e.g.
to ensure KVM doesn't end up with botched offsets, and to make it a bit more
clear what's going on.


	if (WARN_ON_ONCE(kvm_is_error_gpa(gpa) == kvm_is_error_hva(uhva))
		return -EINVAL;
