Did you forget a link below? I'm interested in hearing about that
categorisation.

It's perhaps a bigger hammer than you are looking for, but the
solution we're working on at Google is "Address Space Isolation" (ASI)
- the latest posting about that is [2].

The sense in which it's a bigger hammer is that it doesn't only
support removing guest memory from the direct map, but rather
arbitrary data from arbitrary kernel mappings.
