Hello,

I've got the following WARNING while running syzkaller fuzzer:

If I am reading this correctly, failure to map msr bitmap is trivially
trigger-able by guest (specify an invalid address?) and thus should
not be a warning. The case is already handled by disabling
acceleration. So can we remove the warning? or replace with pr_err?

In reply to#1589745
I believe this happens when the VMCS12 MSR bitmap address is valid,
but no device is configured to respond to the bus request. I agree
that the warning should be removed. However, in this case, the VMCS12
MSR bitmap should read as all 1s. The same is true everywhere that
nested_get_page returns NULL. Reads should return all 1s and writes
should be ignored.

Yes, we have already checked that the address is within physical limits
and page-aligned.  After that, any errors seem like undefined behavior.

Going to do a bare-metal check and send a patch, thanks.
