Now that the fast invalidate mechanism has been reintroduced, restore the performance tweaks for fast invalidation that existed prior to its removal. Paraphrashing the original changelog: Reload the mmu on all vCPUs after updating the generation number so that obsolete pages are not used by any vCPUs. This allows collapsing all TLB flushes during obsolete page zapping into a single flush, as there is no need to flush when dropping mmu_lock (to reschedule). Note: a remote TLB flush is still needed before freeing the pages as other vCPUs may be doing a lockless shadow page walk. Opportunstically improve the comments restored by the revert (the code itself is a true revert). This reverts commit f34d251d.
