[Patch v3 4/7] KVM: x86/mmu: Optimize SPTE change for aging gfn range

[Vipin Sharma]

No need to check all of the conditions in __handle_changed_spte(). Aging
a gfn range implies resetting access bit or marking spte for access
tracking.

Use atomic operation to only reset those bits. This avoids checking many
conditions in __handle_changed_spte() API. Also, clean up code by
removing dead code and API parameters.
