I think placing this here means we will miss a few translations, namely 
when we do a physical access (say, reading PDPTEs or similar).

We need to do this on the level of kvm_read_guest() so we capture 
physical accesses:

kvm_read_guest_virt
   -> walk_addr
      -> kvm_read_guest_tdp
          -> kvm_read_guest_virt
             -> walk_addr
                 -> kvm_read_guest_tdp
                      -> kvm_read_guest

Of course, not all accesses will use kvm_read_guest_tdp; for example 
kvmclock accesses should still go untranslated.
