Subject[PATCH] KVM: x86/mmu: Update number of zapped pages even if page list is stable
From
When zapping obsolete pages, update the running count of zapped pages
regardless of whether or not the list has become unstable due to zapping
a shadow page with its own child shadow pages. If the VM is backed by
mostly 4kb pages, KVM can zap an absurd number of SPTEs without bumping
the batch count and thus without yielding. In the worst case scenario,
this can cause an RCU stall.

I haven't actually verified this makes David's RCU stall go away, but I did
verify that "batch" stays at "0" before and increments as expected after,
and that KVM does yield as expected after.
