Paolo Bonzini 0cd8dc7398 KVM: x86/mmu: pull call to drop_large_spte() into __link_shadow_page()
Before allocating a child shadow page table, all callers check
whether the parent already points to a huge page and, if so, they
drop that SPTE.  This is done by drop_large_spte().

However, dropping the large SPTE is really only necessary before the
sp is installed.  While the sp is returned by kvm_mmu_get_child_sp(),
installing it happens later in __link_shadow_page().  Move the call
there instead of having it in each and every caller.

To ensure that the shadow page is not linked twice if it was present,
do _not_ opportunistically make kvm_mmu_get_child_sp() idempotent:
instead, return an error value if the shadow page already existed.
This is a bit more verbose, but clearer than NULL.

Finally, now that the drop_large_spte() name is not taken anymore,
remove the two underscores in front of __drop_large_spte().
