KVM: x86/mmu: Add lockdep assert to enforce safe usage of kvm_unmap_gfn_range()
Add a lockdep assertion in kvm_unmap_gfn_range() to ensure that either
mmu_invalidate_in_progress is elevated, or that the range is being zapped
due to memslot removal (loosely detected by slots_lock being held).
Zapping SPTEs without mmu_invalidate_{in_progress,seq} protection is unsafe
as KVM's page fault path snapshots state before acquiring mmu_lock, and
thus can create SPTEs with stale information if vCPUs aren't forced to
retry faults (due to seeing an in-progress or past MMU invalidation).
Memslot removal is a special case, as the memslot is retrieved outside of
mmu_invalidate_seq, i.e. doesn't use the "standard" protections, and
instead relies on SRCU synchronization to ensure any in-flight page faults
are fully resolved before zapping SPTEs.
