This is needed too, in order to look up with the correct uf:

diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c b/arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c
index 003618e324ce..941d345ebd2c 100644

gpa = vmcs_read64(GUEST_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS);
trace_kvm_page_fault(gpa, exit_qualification);

- /* It is a write fault? */

error_code = exit_qualification & PFERR_WRITE_MASK;

- error_code |= (exit_qualification >> 3) & PFERR_PRESENT_MASK;
+ error_code |= (exit_qualification & 0x38) != 0;

vcpu->arch.exit_qualification = exit_qualification;

Otherwise you always lookup the permission bitmap for an uf=0 case.
This was the meaning of the "Not really needed" comment.
