Rounding down the GFN to a huge page size is a common pattern throughout
KVM. Can you introduce a common way of doing this and clean up the other
call sites?

This eventually gets converted to kvm_flush_remote_tlbs_gfn() in a later
patch; which is even more reason to introduce
kvm_flush_remote_tlbs_gfn() in the previous patch.
