KVM: PPC: Book3S: Mark "struct page" pfns dirty/accessed after installing PTE
Mark pages/folios dirty/accessed after installing a PTE, and more
specifically after acquiring mmu_lock and checking for an mmu_notifier
invalidation. Marking a page/folio dirty after it has been written back
can make some filesystems unhappy (backing KVM guests will such filesystem
files is uncommon, and the race is minuscule, hence the lack of complaints).
See the link below for details.
This will also allow converting Book3S to kvm_release_faultin_page(),
which requires that mmu_lock be held (for the aforementioned reason).
