KVM: MMU: Simplify page table walker
Simplify the walker level loop not to carry so much information from one
loop to the next. In addition to being complex, this made kmap_atomic()
critical sections difficult to manage.
As a result of this change, kmap_atomic() sections are limited to actually
touching the guest pte, which allows the other functions called from the
walker to do sleepy operations. This will happen when we enable swapping.
