This function is actually not used for initialization.
Instead, it's only called after failure of free_private_spt() in order to
intentionally leak the page to prevent kernel from accessing the encrypted page.

So to avoid confusion, how about renaming it to kvm_mmu_leak_private_spt() and
always resetting the pointer to NULL?

static inline void kvm_mmu_leak_private_spt(struct kvm_mmu_page *sp)
{
	sp->private_spt = NULL;
}
