Page_idle uses {ptep/pmdp}_clear_young_notify which in turn calls
the mmu notifier callback ->clear_young(), which purposefully
does not flush the TLB.
When running the test in a nested guest, point 1. of the test
doc header is violated, because KVM TLB is unbounded by size
and since no flush is forced, KVM does not update the sptes
accessed/idle bits resulting in guest assertion failure.
More precisely, only the first ACCESS_WRITE in run_test() actually
makes visible changes, because sptes are created and the accessed
bit is set to 1 (or idle bit is 0). Then the first mark_memory_idle()
passes since access bit is still one, and sets all pages as idle
(or not accessed). When the next write is performed, the update
is not flushed therefore idle is still 1 and next mark_memory_idle()
fails.
