SubjectRe: [PATCH 4/8] KVM: MMU: drop unsync_child_bitmap

unsync_child_bitmap takes one cacheline; the shadow page table takes
64. This will make unsync/resync much more expensive.

I suggest to put unsync_child_bitmap at the end (together with
unsync_children) and simply not allocate it when unneeded (have two
kmem_caches for the two cases).
