You have to check level == 1 specifically here, or add...

... "if (level > 1)" here.

Otherwise, you're marking bits 6:3 as reserved for 4K pages.  This
should cause a WARN, because KVM puts 0110 in those bits:

                ret = (MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK << VMX_EPT_MT_EPTE_SHIFT)
                        | VMX_EPT_IPAT_BIT;

(in vmx_get_mt_mask: writeback memory, ignore PAT memory type from the
guest's page tables)

How are you testing this patch?

Paolo
