Subject[PATCH v2 9/9] KVM: x86/mmu: Promote pages in-place when disabling dirty logging
From
When disabling dirty logging, the TDP MMU currently zaps each leaf entry
mapping memory in the relevant memslot. This is very slow. Doing the zaps
under the mmu read lock requires a TLB flush for every zap and the
zapping causes a storm of ETP/NPT violations.

Instead of zapping, replace the split large pages with large page
mappings directly. While this sort of operation has historically only
been done in the vCPU page fault handler context, refactorings earlier
in this series and the relative simplicity of the TDP MMU make it
possible here as well.

Running the dirty_log_perf_test on an Intel Skylake with 96 vCPUs and 1G
of memory per vCPU, this reduces the time required to disable dirty
logging from over 45 seconds to just over 1 second. It also avoids
provoking page faults, improving vCPU performance while disabling
dirty logging.
