[PATCH v4 4/6] KVM: MMU: prefetch ptes when intercepted guest #PF

[Xiao Guangrong]

Support prefetch ptes when intercept guest #PF, avoid to #PF by later
access

If we meet any failure in the prefetch path, we will exit it and
not try other ptes to avoid become heavy path

Note: this speculative will mark page become dirty but it not really
accessed, the same issue is in other speculative paths like invlpg,
pte write, fortunately, it just affect host memory management. After
Avi's patchset named "[PATCH v2 1/4] KVM: MMU: Introduce drop_spte()"
merged, we will easily fix it. Will do it in the future.
