Split huge pages eagerly when enabling dirty logging. The goal is to avoid doing it while faulting on write-protected pages, which negatively impacts guest performance. A memslot marked for dirty logging is split in 1GB pieces at a time. This is in order to release the mmu_lock and give other kernel threads the opportunity to run, and also in order to allocate enough pages to split a 1GB range worth of huge pages (or a single 1GB huge page). Note that these page allocations can fail, so eager page splitting is best-effort. This is not a correctness issue though, as huge pages can still be split on write-faults. The benefits of eager page splitting are the same as in x86, added with commit a3fe5dbda0a4 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Split huge pages mapped by the TDP MMU when dirty logging is enabled"). For example, when running dirty_log_perf_test with 64 virtual CPUs (Ampere Altra), 1GB per vCPU, 50% reads, and 2MB HugeTLB memory, the time it takes vCPUs to access all of their memory after dirty logging is enabled decreased by 44% from 2.58s to 1.42s.
