KVM: x86/mmu: Pass the memslot around via struct kvm_page_fault
The memslot for the faulting gfn is used throughout the page fault handling code, so capture it in kvm_page_fault as soon as we know the gfn and use it in the page fault handling code that has direct access to the kvm_page_fault struct. Replace various tests using is_noslot_pfn with more direct tests on fault->slot being NULL. This, in combination with the subsequent patch, improves "Populate memory time" in dirty_log_perf_test by 5% when using the legacy MMU. There is no discerable improvement to the performance of the TDP MMU. No functional change intended.
