Well, kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu() has only one call site and reading the
code I was under an impression we set set_cr3/get_cr3/inject_page_fault
in vmx.c just to avoid passing all these vmx-specific functions as
pointers to kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu(). With get_pdptr() I was thinking
"oh, great, this is not vmx-specific so we can set it in mmu.c" - but I
see your point and I'm ready to budge :-)
