[PATCH 10/25] KVM: emulate: introduce memory_prepare callback to speed up memory access

[Paolo Bonzini]

Emulating a RMW instruction currently walks the page tables
twice.  To avoid this, store the virtual address in the host
and access it directly.

In fact, it turns out that the optimizations we can do
actually benefit all memory accesses.
