Patch 01 fixes a complete braino and lack of testing :-(

The rest of the series is an enhancement to address a performance issue
I encountered when implementing the aforementioned fix.  I wanted to WARN
if KVM_REQ_MMU_LOAD was pending with a valid root shadow page, but it
fired like crazy because the roots in prev_roots have an elevated
root_count and thus can trigger KVM_REQ_MMU_LOAD when the guest zaps a
cached root's corresponding PGD (in the guest).

Patches 2+ haven't been super well tested, I'll beat on 'em more and
holler if anything pops up.

  KVM: x86: Retry page fault if MMU reload is pending and root has no sp
  KVM: x86: Invoke kvm_mmu_unload() directly on CR4.PCIDE change
  KVM: Drop kvm_reload_remote_mmus(), open code request in x86 users
  KVM: x86/mmu: Zap only obsolete roots if a root shadow page is zapped
  KVM: s390: Replace KVM_REQ_MMU_RELOAD usage with arch specific request
  KVM: Drop KVM_REQ_MMU_RELOAD and update vcpu-requests.rst
