For a refcounted page, as now KVM puts its ref early in kvm_faultin_pfn(),
should this kvm_set_page_accessed() be placed before unlocking mmu_lock?
Otherwise, if the user unmaps a region (which triggers kvm_unmap_gfn_range()
with mmu_lock holding for write), and release the page, and if the two
steps happen after checking page_count() in kvm_set_page_accessed() and
before mark_page_accessed(), the latter function may mark accessed to a page
that is released or does not belong to current process.
Is it true?

Ditto.
