Why is it the right place? The assignment was executed once per
VM-creation, now its executed once per kvm_mmu_reset_context
(which is a downside). Another downside is that
vcpu->arch.mmu.translate_gpa = translate_gpa;
vcpu->arch.nested_mmu.translate_gpa = translate_nested_gpa;
You lose this proximity.
