Subject: [RFC PATCH] kvm/x86: Keep root hpa in prev_roots as much as possible

From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@...ux.alibaba.com>

Pagetable roots in prev_roots[] are likely to be reused soon and
there is no much overhead to keep it with a new need_sync field
introduced.

With the help of the new need_sync field, pagetable roots are
kept as much as possible, and they will be re-synced before reused
instead of being dropped.

Signed-off-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@...ux.alibaba.com>

This patch is just for RFC.
  Is the idea Ok?
  If the idea is Ok, we need to reused one bit from pgd or hpa
    as need_sync to save memory.  Which one is better?
