KVM: PPC: Book3S PR: Make HPT accesses and updates SMP-safe

This adds a per-VM mutex to provide mutual exclusion between vcpus
for accesses to and updates of the guest hashed page table (HPT).
This also makes the code use single-byte writes to the HPT entry
when updating of the reference (R) and change (C) bits.  The reason
for doing this, rather than writing back the whole HPTE, is that on
non-PAPR virtual machines, the guest OS might be writing to the HPTE
concurrently, and writing back the whole HPTE might conflict with
that.  Also, real hardware does single-byte writes to update R and C.

The new mutex is taken in kvmppc_mmu_book3s_64_xlate() when reading
the HPT and updating R and/or C, and in the PAPR HPT update hcalls
(H_ENTER, H_REMOVE, etc.).  Having the mutex means that we don't need
to use a hypervisor lock bit in the HPT update hcalls, and we don't
need to be careful about the order in which the bytes of the HPTE are
updated by those hcalls.

The other change here is to make emulated TLB invalidations (tlbie)
effective across all vcpus.  To do this we call kvmppc_mmu_pte_vflush
for all vcpus in kvmppc_ppc_book3s_64_tlbie().

For 32-bit, this makes the setting of the accessed and dirty bits use
single-byte writes, and makes tlbie invalidate shadow HPTEs for all
vcpus.

With this, PR KVM can successfully run SMP guests.
