From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> When kvm->tlbs_dirty > 0, some rmaps might have been deleted without flushing tlb remotely after kvm_sync_page(). If @gfn was writable before and it's rmaps was deleted in kvm_sync_page(), and if the tlb entry is still in a remote running VCPU, the @gfn is not safely protected. To fix the problem, kvm_sync_page() does the remote flush when needed to avoid the problem.
