Thinking about this more, I would rather revert commit 1e0c7d40758b ("KVM: SVM:
hyper-v: Remote TLB flush for SVM") or fix the thing properly straitaway.  KVM
doesn't magically handle the flushes correctly for the shadow/legacy MMU, KVM just
happens to get lucky and not run afoul of the underlying bugs.  The revert appears
to be reasonably straightforward (see bottom).

And _if_ we want to hack-a-fix it, then I would strongly prefer a very isolated,
obviously hacky fix, e.g.
