x86/kvm/nVMX: introduce source data cache for kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu()

vittyvk · bonzini · commit a336282d7753 · 2018-10-17T00:30:06.000+02:00
MMU re-initialization is expensive, in particular,
update_permission_bitmask() and update_pkru_bitmask() are.

Cache the data used to setup shadow EPT MMU and avoid full re-init when
it is unchanged.
