Subject: [PATCH] KVM: MMU: Introduce single thread to zap collapsible sptes

Last year guys from huawei reported that the call of memory_global_dirty_log_start/stop() 
takes 13s for 4T memory and cause guest freeze too long which increases the unacceptable 
migration downtime. [1] [2]

Guangrong pointed out:

| collapsible_sptes zaps 4k mappings to make memory-read happy, it is not
| required by the semanteme of KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION and it is not
| urgent for vCPU's running, it could be done in a separate thread and use
| lock-break technology.

[2] https://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg449994.html

Several TB memory guest is common now after NVDIMM is deployed in cloud environment.
This patch utilizes worker thread to zap collapsible sptes in order to lazy collapse 
small sptes into large sptes during roll-back after live migration fails.
