Oops... I forgot that...

Agree.

ept_identity_pagetable_done was used to indicate if the pagetable was setted 
up, and ept_identity_pagetable was used to indicate if the page used for 
pagetable was allocated... I don't want to run alloc_identity_pagetable() 
again and again and again... Another method is read several bits at the front 
of page to tell if the pagetable was setted up, but somehow tricky...
