Subject: [PATCH V2 02/10] KVM: X86: Synchronize the shadow pagetable before link it

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

If gpte is changed from non-present to present, the guest doesn't need
to flush tlb per SDM.  So the host must synchronze sp before
link it.  Otherwise the guest might use a wrong mapping.

For example: the guest first changes a level-1 pagetable, and then
links its parent to a new place where the original gpte is non-present.
Finally the guest can access the remapped area without flushing
the tlb.  The guest's behavior should be allowed per SDM, but the host
kvm mmu makes it wrong.

Fixes: 4731d4c7a077 ("KVM: MMU: out of sync shadow core")

Changed from V1:
	Don't loop, but just return when it needs to break.
