KVM: guest_memfd: limit overzealous WARN
Because kvm_gmem_get_pfn() is called from the page fault path without any of the slots_lock, filemap lock or mmu_lock taken, it is possible for it to race with kvm_gmem_unbind(). This is not a problem, as any PTE that is installed temporarily will be zapped before the guest has the occasion to run. However, it is not possible to have a complete unbind+bind racing with the page fault, because deleting the memslot will call synchronize_srcu_expedited() and wait for the page fault to be resolved. Thus, we can still warn if the file is there and is not the one we expect. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
