On the Intel side, vt_pre_mmu_map_page will handle doing nothing. Is there a
reason the AMD side can't do the same thing?

Not suggesting to do anything about it for this series, but there seems to be a
growing amount of manual KVM_X86_SW_PROTECTED_VM checks. I guess the problem
with giving it its own x86_ops is figuring which arch calls to use. Hmm.

Do we actually need this last check?
