Unless there is a *very* good reason for these shenanigans, spp.c needs
to built via the Makefile like any other source.  If this is justified
for whatever reason, then that justification needs to be very clearly
stated in the changelog.

In general, the code organization of this entire series likely needs to
be overhauled.  There are gobs exports which are either completely
unnecessary or completely backswards.

E.g. exporting VMX-only functions from spp.c, which presumably are only
callbed by VMX.

	EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(vmx_spp_flush_sppt);
	EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(vmx_spp_init);

Exporting ioctl helpers from the same file, which are presumably called
only from x86.c.

	EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(kvm_vm_ioctl_get_subpages);
	EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(kvm_vm_ioctl_set_subpages);
