Subject: [RFC PATCH 8/9] KVM: Plumb mmu_notifier invalidation event type into
 arch code

Forward the mmu_notifier invalidation event information into the arch
handler so that arch code can take different actions based on the
invalidation type.  E.g. x86 will use the information to preserve
Accessed information when zapping SPTEs because of a protection change.
