Subject: [56/80] KVM: MMU: fix direct sps access corrupted

2.6.35-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: Xiao Guangrong <xiaoguangrong@...fujitsu.com>

commit 9e7b0e7fba45ca3c6357aeb7091ebc281f1de365 upstream.

If the mapping is writable but the dirty flag is not set, we will find
the read-only direct sp and setup the mapping, then if the write #PF
occur, we will mark this mapping writable in the read-only direct sp,
now, other real read-only mapping will happily write it without #PF.

It may hurt guest's COW

Fixed by re-install the mapping when write #PF occur.
