A counter keeping track of how many hardware registers (guest cr3 or
pdptrs) are now pointing at the page. While this counter is nonzero, the
page cannot be destroyed. See role.invalid.
multimapped:
Whether there exist multiple sptes pointing at this page.
parent_pte/parent_ptes:
If multimapped is zero, parent_pte points at the single spte that points at
this page's spt. Otherwise, parent_ptes points at a data structure
with a list of parent_ptes.
parent_ptes:
The reverse mapping for the pte/ptes pointing at this page's spt. If
parent_ptes bit 0 is zero, only one spte points at this pages and
parent_ptes points at this single spte, otherwise, there exists multiple
sptes pointing at this page and (parent_ptes & ~0x1) points at a data
structure with a list of parent_ptes.
unsync:
If true, then the translations in this page may not match the guest's
