x86/kvm: Cache gfn to pfn translation
commit 917248144db5d7320655dbb41d3af0b8a0f3d589 upstream.
__kvm_map_gfn()'s call to gfn_to_pfn_memslot() is
* relatively expensive
* in certain cases (such as when done from atomic context) cannot be called
Stashing gfn-to-pfn mapping should help with both cases.
This is part of CVE-2019-3016.
