Alternative name: kvm_memslot_change

A bit weird to have this passed by the caller. I'd rather have __kvm_set_memory_region with the *batch argument (which I'd call instead *change), and design kvm_set_memory_region so that, at the end of the series, it is something like:

int kvm_set_memory_region(struct kvm *kvm,
			  const struct kvm_userspace_memory_region *mem)
{
	struct kvm_memslot_change change = {};
	r = __kvm_set_memory_region(kvm, mem, &change);
	if (r < 0)
		return r;
	r = invalidate_memslot_for_change(kvm, &change);
	if (r < 0)
		return r;
	return commit_memslot_change(kvm, &change);
}
