KVM: x86/mmu: Pass kvm pointer separately from vcpu to kvm_mmu_find_shadow_page()

Browse source

Get the kvm pointer from the caller, rather than deriving it from
vcpu->kvm, and plumb the kvm pointer all the way from
kvm_mmu_get_shadow_page(). With this change in place, the vcpu pointer
is only needed to sync indirect shadow pages. In other words,
__kvm_mmu_get_shadow_page() can now be used to get *direct* shadow pages
without a vcpu pointer. This enables eager page splitting, which needs
to allocate direct shadow pages during VM ioctls.

No functional change intended.
