KVM x86 MMU changes for 6.4:
- Tweak FNAME(sync_spte) to avoid unnecessary writes+flushes when the
guest is only adding new PTEs
- Overhaul .sync_page() and .invlpg() to share the .sync_page()
implementation, i.e. utilize .sync_page()'s optimizations when emulating
invalidations
- Clean up the range-based flushing APIs
- Revamp the TDP MMU's reaping of Accessed/Dirty bits to clear a single
A/D bit using a LOCK AND instead of XCHG, and skip all of the "handle
changed SPTE" overhead associated with writing the entire entry
- Track the number of "tail" entries in a pte_list_desc to avoid having
to walk (potentially) all descriptors during insertion and deletion,
which gets quite expensive if the guest is spamming fork()
- Misc cleanups
