Once mmu notifiers are in, KVM_ZAP_GFN isn't needed.  So we have three 
possible situations:

- zap needed, but not available: don't madvise()
- zap needed and available: zap and madvise()
- zap unneeded: madvise()

Did you find out what's causing the errors in the first place (if zap is 
not used)?  It worries me greatly.
