Subject: [PATCH v2 5/5] KVM: x86/mmu: Use dummy root, backed by zero page, for
 !visible guest roots

When attempting to allocate a shadow root for a !visible guest root gfn,
e.g. that resides in MMIO space, load a dummy root that is backed by the
zero page instead of immediately synthesizing a triple fault shutdown
(using the zero page ensures any attempt to translate memory will generate
a !PRESENT fault and thus VM-Exit).

Unless the vCPU is racing with memslot activity, KVM will inject a page
fault due to not finding a visible slot in FNAME(walk_addr_generic), i.e.
the end result is mostly same, but critically KVM will inject a fault only
*after* KVM runs the vCPU with the bogus root.

Waiting to inject a fault until after running the vCPU fixes a bug where
KVM would bail from nested VM-Enter if L1 tried to run L2 with TDP enabled
and a !visible root.  Even though a bad root will *probably* lead to
shutdown, (a) it's not guaranteed and (b) the CPU won't read the
underlying memory until after VM-Enter succeeds.  E.g. if L1 runs L2 with
a VMX preemption timer value of '0', then architecturally the preemption
timer VM-Exit is guaranteed to occur before the CPU executes any
instruction, i.e. before the CPU needs to translate a GPA to a HPA (so
long as there are no injected events with higher priority than the
preemption timer).

If KVM manages to get to FNAME(fetch) with a dummy root, e.g. because
userspace created a memslot between installing the dummy root and handling
the page fault, simply unload the MMU to allocate a new root and retry the
instruction.  Use KVM_REQ_MMU_FREE_OBSOLETE_ROOTS to drop the root, as
invoking kvm_mmu_free_roots() while holding mmu_lock would deadlock, and
conceptually the dummy root has indeeed become obsolete.  The only
difference versus existing usage of KVM_REQ_MMU_FREE_OBSOLETE_ROOTS is
that the root has become obsolete due to memslot *creation*, not memslot
deletion or movement.
