With guest smp, a second vcpu might see partial updates when the first
vcpu services a page fault.  So delay all updates until we have figured
out what the pte should look like.

Note that on i386, this is still not completely atomic as a 64-bit write
will be split into two on a 32-bit machine.

MSR_EFER.LME/LMA bits are automatically save/restored by VMX
hardware, KVM only needs to save NX/SCE bits at time of heavy
weight VM Exit. But clearing NX bits in host envirnment may
cause system hang if the host page table is using EXB bits,
thus we leave NX bits as it is. If Host NX=1 and guest NX=0, we
can do guest page table EXB bits check before inserting a shadow
pte (though no guest is expecting to see this kind of gp fault).
If host NX=0, we present guest no Execute-Disable feature to guest,
thus no host NX=0, guest NX=1 combination.

This patch reduces raw vmexit time by ~27%.

Me: fix compile warnings on i386.

If we set an msr via an ioctl() instead of by handling a guest exit, we
have the host state loaded, so reloading the msrs would clobber host

Attempting to boot the default 'bsd' kernel of OpenBSD 4.1 i386 in a guest
fails early in the kernel init inside p3_get_bus_clock while trying to read
the IA32_EBL_CR_POWERON MSR.  KVM logs an 'unhandled MSR' message and the
guest kernel faults.

This patch is sufficient to allow OpenBSD to boot, after which it seems to
run fine.  I'm not sure if this is the correct solution for dealing with
this particular MSR, but it works for me.

The lightweight vmexit path avoids saving and reloading certain host
state.  However in certain cases lightweight vmexit handling can schedule()
which requires reloading the host state.

So we store the host state in the vcpu structure, and reloaded it if we
relinquish the vcpu.

This improves kbuild times by about 10%, bringing it within a respectable

A typical demand page/copy on write pattern is:

- page fault on vaddr
- kvm propagates fault to guest
- guest handles fault, updates pte
- kvm traps write, clears shadow pte, resumes guest
- guest returns to userspace, re-faults on same vaddr
- kvm installs shadow pte, resumes guest
- guest continues

So, three vmexits for a single guest page fault.  But if instead of clearing
the page table entry, we update to correspond to the value that the guest
has just written, we eliminate the third vmexit.

This patch does exactly that, reducing kbuild time by about 10%.

When a guest writes to a page that has an mmu shadow, we have to clear
the shadow pte corresponding to the memory location touched by the guest.

Now, in nonpae mode, a single guest page may have two or four shadow
pages (because a nonpae page maps 4MB or 4GB, whereas the pae shadow maps
2MB or 1GB), so we when we look up the page we find up to three additional
aliases for the page.  Since we _clear_ the shadow pte, it doesn't matter
except for a slight performance penalty, but if we want to _update_ the
shadow pte instead of clearing it, it is vital that we don't modify the
aliases.

Fortunately, exactly which page is needed (the "quadrant") is easily
computed, and is accessible in the shadow page header.  All we need is
to ignore shadow pages from the wrong quadrants.

The kvm mmu tries to detects forks by looking for repeated writes to a
page table.  If it sees a fork, it unshadows the page table so the page
table copying can proceed at native speed instead of being emulated.

However, the detector also triggered on simple demand paging access patterns:
a linear walk of memory would of course cause repeated writes to the same
pagetable page, causing it to unshadow prematurely.

Fix by resetting the fork detector if we detect a demand fault.
