It is probably worth mentioning that if there was a race to update the PTE then the GFN is most likely young, so failing to clear AF probably isn't even consequential.
Oh, and the WARN_ON() in kvm_pgtable_stage2_test_clear_young() is bogus now. Maybe demote it to:
r = kvm_pgtable_walk(...); WARN_ON_ONCE(r && r != -EAGAIN);
