Subject: [PATCH v3 06/15] KVM: MMU: allow concurrently clearing spte on remove-only pte-list

This patch introduce PTE_LIST_SPTE_SKIP which is the placeholder and
it will be set on pte-list after removing a spte so that other sptes
on this pte_list are not moved and the pte-list-descs on the pte-list
are not freed.

If vcpu can not add spte to the pte-list (e.g. the rmap on invalid
memslot) and spte can not be freed during pte-list walk, we can
concurrently clear sptes on the pte-list, the worst case is, we double
zap a spte that is safe.

This patch only ensures that concurrently zapping pte-list is safe,
we will keep spte available during concurrently clearing in the later
patches
