KVM: x86/mmu: Add support for lockless walks of rmap SPTEs
Add a lockless version of for_each_rmap_spte(), which is pretty much the same as the normal version, except that it doesn't BUG() the host if a non-present SPTE is encountered. When mmu_lock is held, it should be impossible for a different task to zap a SPTE, _and_ zapped SPTEs must be removed from their rmap chain prior to dropping mmu_lock. Thus, the normal walker BUG()s if a non-present SPTE is encountered as something is wildly broken. When walking rmaps without holding mmu_lock, the SPTEs pointed at by the rmap chain can be zapped/dropped, and so a lockless walk can observe a non-present SPTE if it runs concurrently with a different operation that is zapping SPTEs.
