- Cleanup KVM's handling of Accessed and Dirty bits to dedup code, improve
documentation, harden against unexpected changes, and to simplify
A/D-disabled MMUs by using the hardware-defined A/D bits to track if a
PFN is Accessed and/or Dirty.
- Elide TLB flushes when aging SPTEs, as has been done in x86's primary
MMU for over 10 years.
- Batch TLB flushes when zapping collapsible TDP MMU SPTEs, i.e. when
dirty logging is toggled off, which reduces the time it takes to disable
dirty logging by ~3x.
- Recover huge pages in-place in the TDP MMU instead of zapping the SP
and waiting until the page is re-accessed to create a huge mapping.
Proactively installing huge pages can reduce vCPU jitter in extreme
scenarios.
- Remove support for (poorly) reclaiming page tables in shadow MMUs via
the primary MMU's shrinker interface.
