Concerns were expressed around APF delivery via synthetic #PF exception as in some cases such delivery may collide with real page fault. For 'page ready' notifications we can easily switch to using an interrupt instead. Introduce new MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_INT mechanism and deprecate the legacy one. One notable difference between the two mechanisms is that interrupt may not get handled immediately so whenever we would like to deliver next event (regardless of its type) we must be sure the guest had read and cleared previous event in the slot. While on it, get rid on 'type 1/type 2' names for APF events in the documentation as they are causing confusion. Use 'page not present' and 'page ready' everywhere instead.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
