Subject: [PATCH v2] KVM: x86: Use SRCU to protect zap in __kvm_set_or_clear_apicv_inhibit()

kvm_zap_gfn_range() must be called in an SRCU read-critical section, but
there is no SRCU annotation in __kvm_set_or_clear_apicv_inhibit(). This
can lead to the following warning via
kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_guest_debug() if a Shadow MMU is in use (TDP
MMU disabled or nesting):

Always take the KVM SRCU read lock in __kvm_set_or_clear_apicv_inhibit()
to protect the GFN to memslot translation. The SRCU read lock is not
technically required when no Shadow MMUs are in use, since the TDP MMU
walks the paging structures from the roots and does not need to look up
GFN translations in the memslots, but make the SRCU locking
unconditional for simplicty.

In most cases, the SRCU locking is taken care of in the vCPU run loop,
but when called through the KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG IOCTL, the SRCU read
lock is missing.

Tested: ran tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86_64/debug_regs on a DBG
	build. This patch causes the suspicious RCU warning to disappear.
	Note that the warning is hit in __kvm_zap_rmaps(), so
	kvm_memslots_have_rmaps() must return true in order for this to
	repro (i.e. the TDP MMU must be off or nesting in use.)
