Walks all children of given page with no efficiency. Its replaced later
by the bitmap version.

The shadow page will go unsync on pte touch and resynced as soon as its
visible (after return to paging).
Or, while still in real mode, it might be zapped by
kvm_mmu_get_page->kvm_sync_page.
Am I missing something?

Hum, will think about it.

Yes. The next element for_each_entry_safe saved could have been zapped.

Yes.

Windows 2008 64-bit has all sorts of sharing a pagetable at multiple
levels too.
