KVM: x86/mmu: Use fast invalidate mechanism to zap MMIO sptes
Use the fast invalidate mechasim to zap MMIO sptes on a MMIO generation wrap. The fast invalidate flow was reintroduced to fix a livelock bug in kvm_mmu_zap_all() that can occur if kvm_mmu_zap_all() is invoked when the guest has live vCPUs. I.e. using kvm_mmu_zap_all() to handle the MMIO generation wrap is theoretically susceptible to the livelock bug. This effectively reverts commit 4771450c345dc ("Revert "KVM: MMU: drop kvm_mmu_zap_mmio_sptes""), i.e. restores the behavior of commit a8eca9dcc656a ("KVM: MMU: drop kvm_mmu_zap_mmio_sptes"). Note, this actually fixes commit 571c5af06e303 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Voluntarily reschedule as needed when zapping MMIO sptes"), but there is no need to incrementally revert back to using fast invalidate, e.g. doing so doesn't provide any bisection or stability benefits.
