In order to interoperate correctly with the rest of KVM and other Linux
subsystems, the TDP MMU must correctly handle various MMU notifiers. Add
a hook and handle the change_pte MMU notifier.

In order to interoperate correctly with the rest of KVM and other Linux
subsystems, the TDP MMU must correctly handle various MMU notifiers. The
main Linux MM uses the access tracking MMU notifiers for swap and other
features. Add hooks to handle the test/flush HVA (range) family of
MMU notifiers.

Add functions to handle page faults in the TDP MMU. These page faults
are currently handled in much the same way as the x86 shadow paging
based MMU, however the ordering of some operations is slightly
different. Future patches will add eager NX splitting, a fast page fault
handler, and parallel page faults.

Add functions to zap SPTEs to the TDP MMU. These are needed to tear down
TDP MMU roots properly and implement other MMU functions which require
tearing down mappings. Future patches will add functions to populate the
page tables, but as for this patch there will not be any work for these
functions to do.

The existing bookkeeping done by KVM when a PTE is changed is spread
around several functions. This makes it difficult to remember all the
stats, bitmaps, and other subsystems that need to be updated whenever a
PTE is modified. When a non-leaf PTE is marked non-present or becomes a
leaf PTE, page table memory must also be freed. To simplify the MMU and
facilitate the use of atomic operations on SPTEs in future patches, create
functions to handle some of the bookkeeping required as a result of
a change.

The TDP MMU must be able to allocate paging structure root pages and track
the usage of those pages. Implement a similar, but separate system for root
page allocation to that of the x86 shadow paging implementation. When
future patches add synchronization model changes to allow for parallel
page faults, these pages will need to be handled differently from the
x86 shadow paging based MMU's root pages.

The TDP MMU offers an alternative mode of operation to the x86 shadow
paging based MMU, optimized for running an L1 guest with TDP. The TDP MMU
will require new fields that need to be initialized and torn down. Add
hooks into the existing KVM MMU initialization process to do that
initialization / cleanup. Currently the initialization and cleanup
fucntions do not do very much, however more operations will be added in
future patches.
