Subject: [PATCH v6 02/11] arch: export set_direct_map_valid_noflush to KVM
module
Use the new per-module export functionality to allow KVM (and only KVM)
access to set_direct_map_valid_noflush(). This allows guest_memfd to
remove its memory from the direct map, even if KVM is built as a module.
Direct map removal gives guest_memfd the same protection that
memfd_secret enjoys, such as hardening against Spectre-like attacks
through in-kernel gadgets.
