If two page ready notifications happen back to back the second one is not delivered and the only mechanism we currently have is kvm_check_async_pf_completion() check in vcpu_run() loop. The check will only be performed with the next vmexit when it happens and in some cases it may take a while. With interrupt based page ready notification delivery the situation is even worse: unlike exceptions, interrupts are not handled immediately so we must check if the slot is empty. This is slow and unnecessary. Introduce dedicated MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_ACK MSR to communicate the fact that the slot is free and host should check its notification queue. Mandate using it for interrupt based 'page ready' APF event delivery. As kvm_check_async_pf_completion() is going away from vcpu_run() we need a way to communicate the fact that vcpu->async_pf.done queue has transitioned from empty to non-empty state. Introduce kvm_arch_async_page_present_queued() and KVM_REQ_APF_READY to do the job.

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.
