Add KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH_CURRENT to allow optimized TLB flushing of VMX's
EPTP/VPID contexts[*] from the KVM MMU and/or in a deferred manner, e.g.
to flush L2's context during nested VM-Enter.
Convert KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH to KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH_CURRENT in flows where
the flush is directly associated with vCPU-scoped instruction emulation,
i.e. MOV CR3 and INVPCID.
Add a comment in vmx_vcpu_load_vmcs() above its KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH to
make it clear that it deliberately requests a flush of all contexts.
Service any pending flush request on nested VM-Exit as it's possible a
nested VM-Exit could occur after requesting a flush for L2. Add the
same logic for nested VM-Enter even though it's _extremely_ unlikely
for flush to be pending on nested VM-Enter, but theoretically possible
(in the future) due to RSM (SMM) emulation.
[*] Intel also has an Address Space Identifier (ASID) concept, e.g.
EPTP+VPID+PCID == ASID, it's just not documented in the SDM because
the rules of invalidation are different based on which piece of the
ASID is being changed, i.e. whether the EPTP, VPID, or PCID context
must be invalidated.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
