KVM: PPC: Maintain a doubly-linked list of guest HPTEs for each gfn
This expands the reverse mapping array to contain two links for each HPTE which are used to link together HPTEs that correspond to the same guest logical page. Each circular list of HPTEs is pointed to by the rmap array entry for the guest logical page, pointed to by the relevant memslot. Links are 32-bit HPT entry indexes rather than full 64-bit pointers, to save space. We use 3 of the remaining 32 bits in the rmap array entries as a lock bit, a referenced bit and a present bit (the present bit is needed since HPTE index 0 is valid). The bit lock for the rmap chain nests inside the HPTE lock bit.
