Subject: [PATCH v3 05/11] KVM: x86/mmu: zap KVM TDP when noncoherent DMA assignment starts/stops

Zap KVM TDP when noncoherent DMA assignment starts (noncoherent dma count
transitions from 0 to 1) or stops (noncoherent dma count transistions
from 1 to 0). Before the zap, test if guest MTRR is to be honored after
the assignment starts or was honored before the assignment stops.

When there's no noncoherent DMA device, EPT memory type is
((MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK << VMX_EPT_MT_EPTE_SHIFT) | VMX_EPT_IPAT_BIT)

When there're noncoherent DMA devices, EPT memory type needs to honor
guest CR0.CD and MTRR settings.

So, if noncoherent DMA count transitions between 0 and 1, EPT leaf entries
need to be zapped to clear stale memory type.

This issue might be hidden when the device is statically assigned with
VFIO adding/removing MMIO regions of the noncoherent DMA devices for
several times during guest boot, and current KVM MMU will call
kvm_mmu_zap_all_fast() on the memslot removal.

But if the device is hot-plugged, or if the guest has mmio_always_on for
the device, the MMIO regions of it may only be added for once, then there's
no path to do the EPT entries zapping to clear stale memory type.

Therefore do the EPT zapping when noncoherent assignment starts/stops to
ensure stale entries cleaned away.
