Currently when we emulate a locked operation into a shadowed guest page
table, we perform a write rather than a true atomic.  This is indicated
by the "emulating exchange as write" message that shows up in dmesg.

In addition, the pte prefetch operation during invlpg suffered from a
race.  This was fixed by removing the operation.

This patchset fixes both issues and reinstates pte prefetch on invlpg.

v2:
    - fix truncated description for patch 1
    - add new patch 4, which fixes a bug in patch 5

No comments, but looks like last week's maintainer neglected to merge this.
