The type of guest_memfd in structure kvm_userspace_memory_region2

it is smaller than 0. Here check flags with KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD
set.

Hmm, it's a bit gross, but this is probably more robust?

        if ((int)region->region.guest_memfd < 0)
yes, this is more direct, only that some guys in the community do not like type conversion. Both are ok for me.


E.g. if we somehow end up in a state where KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD is either stale
or the guest_memfd file was already closed.  I highly doubt either of those 
things
will happen, but logically it's the correct fix (the only reason guest_memfd is
a u32 is being it's part of the kernel's uAPI).
Actually it probably will happen, how about something like this:
-       if (region->region.guest_memfd >= 0)
+       if ((int)region->region.guest_memfd >= 0) {
                close(region->region.guest_memfd);
+               region->region.guest_memfd = -1;
+       }
