This patch factors out the direct-mapping paths of the
mmu_alloc_roots function into a seperate function. This
makes it a lot easier to avoid all the unnecessary checks
done in the shadow path which may break when running direct.
In fact, this patch already fixes a problem when running PAE
guests on a PAE shadow page table.

This patch introduces a struct with two new fields in
vcpu_arch for x86:
* fault.address
* fault.error_code
This will be used to correctly propagate page faults back
into the guest when we could have either an ordinary page
fault or a nested page fault. In the case of a nested page
fault the fault-address is different from the original
address that should be walked. So we need to keep track
about the real fault-address.

This patch fixes 32 bit legacy paging with NPT enabled. The
mmu_check_root call on the top-level of the loop causes
root_gfn to take values (in the tdp_enabled path) which are
outside of guest memory. So the mmu_check_root call fails at
some point in the loop interation causing the guest to
tiple-fault.
This patch changes the mmu_check_root calls to the places
where they are really necessary. As a side-effect it
introduces a check for the root of a pae page table too.

Of slab shrinkers, the VM code says:
* Note that 'shrink' will be passed nr_to_scan == 0 when the VM is
* querying the cache size, so a fastpath for that case is appropriate.
and it *means* it. Look at how it calls the shrinkers:
nr_before = (*shrinker->shrink)(0, gfp_mask);
shrink_ret = (*shrinker->shrink)(this_scan, gfp_mask);
So, if you do anything stupid in your shrinker, the VM will doubly
punish you.
The mmu_shrink() function takes the global kvm_lock, then acquires
every VM's kvm->mmu_lock in sequence. If we have 100 VMs, then
we're going to take 101 locks. We do it twice, so each call takes
202 locks. If we're under memory pressure, we can have each cpu
trying to do this. It can get really hairy, and we've seen lock
spinning in mmu_shrink() be the dominant entry in profiles.
This is guaranteed to optimize at least half of those lock
aquisitions away. It removes the need to take any of the locks
when simply trying to count objects.
A 'percpu_counter' can be a large object, but we only have one
of these for the entire system. There are not any better
alternatives at the moment, especially ones that handle CPU
hotplug.

Doing this makes the code much more readable. That's
borne out by the fact that this patch removes code. "used"
also happens to be the number that we need to return back to
the slab code when our shrinker gets called. Keeping this
value as opposed to free makes the next patch simpler.
So, 'struct kvm' is kzalloc()'d. 'struct kvm_arch' is a
structure member (and not a pointer) of 'struct kvm'. That
means they start out zeroed. I _think_ they get initialized
properly by kvm_mmu_change_mmu_pages(). But, that only happens
via kvm ioctls.
Another benefit of storing 'used' intead of 'free' is
that the values are consistent from the moment the structure is
allocated: no negative "used" value.

arch.n_alloc_mmu_pages is a poor choice of name. This value truly
means, "the number of pages which _may_ be allocated". But,
reading the name, "n_alloc_mmu_pages" implies "the number of allocated
mmu pages", which is dead wrong.
It's really the high watermark, so let's give it a name to match:
nr_max_mmu_pages. This change will make the next few patches
much more obvious and easy to read.

"free" is a poor name for this value. In this context, it means,
"the number of mmu pages which this kvm instance should be able to
allocate." But "free" implies much more that the objects are there
and ready for use. "available" is a much better description, especially
when you see how it is calculated.
In this patch, we abstract its use into a function. We'll soon
replace the function's contents by calculating the value in a
different way.
All of the reads of n_free_mmu_pages are taken care of in this
patch. The modification sites will be handled in a patch
later in the series.
