Shadow Stack access, and WARN if KVM attempts to check permissions for a Shadow Stack access as KVM hasn't been taught to understand the magic Writable=0,Dirty=1 combination that is required for Shadow Stack accesses, and likely will never learn. There are no plans to support Shadow Stacks with the Shadow MMU, and the emulator rejects all instructions that affect Shadow Stacks, i.e. it should be impossible for KVM to observe a #PF due to a shadow stack access.
