KVM: x86: Introduce KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH_CURRENT to flush current ASID
Add KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH_CURRENT to allow optimized TLB flushing of VMX's EPTP/VPID contexts[*] from the KVM MMU and/or in a deferred manner, e.g. to flush L2's context during nested VM-Enter. Convert KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH to KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH_CURRENT in flows where the flush is directly associated with vCPU-scoped instruction emulation, i.e. MOV CR3 and INVPCID. Add a comment in vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs() above its KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH to make it clear that it deliberately requests a flush of all contexts. Service any pending flush request on nested VM-Exit as it's possible a nested VM-Exit could occur after requesting a flush for L2. Add the same logic for nested VM-Enter even though it's _extremely_ unlikely for flush to be pending on nested VM-Enter, but theoretically possible (in the future) due to RSM (SMM) emulation. [*] Intel also has an Address Space Identifier (ASID) concept, e.g. EPTP+VPID+PCID == ASID, it's just not documented in the SDM because the rules of invalidation are different based on which piece of the ASID is being changed, i.e. whether the EPTP, VPID, or PCID context must be invalidated.
