[Patch v3 5/9] KVM: x86/mmu: Allocate TDP page table's page on correct NUMA node on split

[Vipin Sharma <vipinsh@xxxxxxxxxx>]

When dirty log is enabled, huge pages are split. Page table's pages
during the split are allocated based on the current thread NUMA node or
mempolicy. This causes inefficient page table accesses if underlying
page is on a different NUMA node

Allocate page table's pages on the same NUMA node as the underlying huge
page when dirty log is enabled and huge pages are split.

The performance gain during the pre-copy phase of live migrations of a
416 vCPUs and 11 TiB memory VM  on a 8 node host was seen in the range
of 130% to 150%.
