KVM: MMU: Avoid handling same rmap_pde in kvm_handle_hva_range()
When we invalidate a THP page, we call the handler with the same rmap_pde argument 512 times in the following loop: for each guest page in the range for each level unmap using rmap This patch avoids these extra handler calls by changing the loop order like this: for each level for each rmap in the range unmap using rmap With the preceding patches in the patch series, this made THP page invalidation more than 5 times faster on our x86 host: the host became more responsive during swapping the guest's memory as a result.
