[PATCH v6 4/6] arch/x86/kvm: Refactor L1D flushing

[Balbir Singh]

Move out the initialization function to l1d_flush_init_once()
so that it can be reused for subsequent patches. The side-effect
of this patch is that the memory allocated for l1d flush pages
is no longer freed up and the memory allocated once is shared
amongst callers.

l1d_flush_sw/hw() are now abstracted under arch_l1d_flush().
vmx_l1d_flush_mutex however continues to exist as it also used
from other code paths.
