Remove x86 KVM's fast invalidate mechanism, i.e. revert all patches
from the original series[1].
Though not explicitly stated, for all intents and purposes the fast
invalidate mechanism was added to speed up the scenario where removing
a memslot, e.g. as part of accessing reading PCI ROM, caused KVM to
flush all shadow entries[1]. Now that the memslot case flushes only
shadow entries belonging to the memslot, i.e. doesn't use the fast
invalidate mechanism, the only remaining usage of the mechanism are
when the VM is being destroyed and when the MMIO generation rolls
over.
When a VM is being destroyed, either there are no active vcpus, i.e.
there's no lock contention, or the VM has ungracefully terminated, in
which case we want to reclaim its pages as quickly as possible, i.e.
not release the MMU lock if there are still CPUs executing in the VM.
The MMIO generation scenario is almost literally a one-in-a-million
occurrence, i.e. is not a performance sensitive scenario.
Given that lock-breaking is not desirable (VM teardown) or irrelevant
(MMIO generation overflow), remove the fast invalidate mechanism to
simplify the code (a small amount) and to discourage future code from
zapping all pages as using such a big hammer should be a last restort.
This reverts commit f6f8adeef5.
