KVM: Add generic support for dirty page logging

kvm_get_dirty_log() provides generic handling of dirty bitmap, currently reused
by several architectures. Building on that we intrdoduce
kvm_get_dirty_log_protect() adding write protection to mark these pages dirty
for future write access, before next KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG ioctl call from user
space.

+/**
+ * kvm_get_dirty_log_protect - get a snapshot of dirty pages, and if any pages
+ *	are dirty write protect them for next write.
+ * @kvm:	pointer to kvm instance
+ * @log:	slot id and address to which we copy the log
+ * @is_dirty:	flag set if any page is dirty
+ *
+ * We need to keep it in mind that VCPU threads can write to the bitmap
+ * concurrently. So, to avoid losing track of dirty pages we keep the
+ * following order:
+ *
+ *    1. Take a snapshot of the bit and clear it if needed.
+ *    2. Write protect the corresponding page.
+ *    3. Copy the snapshot to the userspace.
+ *    4. Upon return caller flushes TLB's if needed.
+ *
+ * Between 2 and 4, the guest may write to the page using the remaining TLB
+ * entry.  This is not a problem because the page is reported dirty using
+ * the snapshot taken before and step 4 ensures that writes done after
+ * exiting to userspace will be logged for the next call.
