KVM: x86/mmu: Remove FNAME(invlpg) and use FNAME(sync_spte) to update vTLB instead.
In hardware TLB, invalidating TLB entries means the translations are removed from the TLB. In KVM shadowed vTLB, the translations (combinations of shadow paging and hardware TLB) are generally maintained as long as they remain "clean" when the TLB of an address space (i.e. a PCID or all) is flushed with the help of write-protections, sp->unsync, and kvm_sync_page(), where "clean" in this context means that no updates to KVM's SPTEs are needed. However, FNAME(invlpg) always zaps/removes the vTLB if the shadow page is unsync, and thus triggers a remote flush even if the original vTLB entry is clean, i.e. is usable as-is. Besides this, FNAME(invlpg) is largely is a duplicate implementation of FNAME(sync_spte) to invalidate a vTLB entry. To address both issues, reuse FNAME(sync_spte) to share the code and slightly modify the semantics, i.e. keep the vTLB entry if it's "clean" and avoid remote TLB flush.
