Paolo Bonzini 807b758496 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
