[RFC PATCH 18/24] KVM: nSVM: Handle nested TLB flush requests through TLB_CONTROL

[Yosry Ahmed]

Handle L1's requests to flush L2's TLB through the TLB_CONTROL field of
VMCB12. This is currently redundant because a full flush is executed on
every nested transition, but is a step towards removing that.

TLB_CONTROL_FLUSH_ALL_ASID flushes all ASIDs from L1's perspective,
including its own, so do a guest TLB flush on both transitions. Never
propagate TLB_CONTROL_FLUSH_ALL_ASID from the guest to the actual VMCB,
as this gives the guest the power to flush the entire physical TLB
(including translations for the host and other VMs).

For ASID flushes, the TLB flush is only done when entering L2. The
nested NPT MMU is also sync'd because TLB_CONTROL also flushes NPT
guest-physical mappings.

All TLB_CONTROL values can be handled by KVM regardless of FLUSHBYASID
support on the underlying CPU, so keep advertising FLUSHBYASID to the
guest unconditionally.
