Subject: [PATCH] KVM: nSVM: fix condition for filtering async PF
Async page faults have to be trapped in the host (L1 in this case), since the APF reason was passed from L0 to L1 and stored in the L1 APF data page. This was completely reversed: the page faults were passed to the guest, a L2 hypervisor.
