[ofa-general] [PATCH] KVM swapping with MMU Notifiers V7

Those below two patches enable KVM to swap the guest physical memory
through Christoph's V7.
There's one last _purely_theoretical_ race condition I figured out and
that I'm wondering how to best fix. The race condition worst case is
that a few guest physical pages could remain pinned by sptes. The race
can materialize if the linux pte is zapped after get_user_pages
returns but before the page is mapped by the spte and tracked by
rmap. The invalidate_ calls can also likely be optimized further but
it's not a fast path so it's not urgent.
