Subject[PATCH v3 8/9] KVM: VMX: optimize #PF injection when MAXPHYADDR does not match
Date
From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

Ignore non-present page faults, since those cannot have reserved
bits set.

When running access.flat with "-cpu Haswell,phys-bits=36", the
number of trapped page faults goes down from 8872644 to 3978948.
