vcpu exits and memslot mutations can run concurrently as long as the
vcpu does not aquire the slots mutex. Thus it is theoretically possible
for memslots to change underneath a vcpu that is handling an exit.

If we increment the memslot generation number again after
synchronize_srcu_expedited(), vcpus can safely cache memslot generation
without maintaining a single rcu_dereference through an entire vm exit.
And much of the x86/kvm code does not maintain a single rcu_dereference
of the current memslots during each exit.

We can prevent the following case:

   vcpu (CPU 0)                             | thread (CPU 1)
--------------------------------------------+--------------------------
1  vm exit                                  |
2  srcu_read_unlock(&kvm->srcu)             |
3  decide to cache something based on       |
     old memslots                           |
4                                           | change memslots
                                            | (increments generation)
5                                           | synchronize_srcu(&kvm->srcu);
6  retrieve generation # from new memslots  |
7  tag cache with new memslot generation    |
8  srcu_read_unlock(&kvm->srcu)             |
...                                         |
   <action based on cache occurs even       |
    though the caching decision was based   |
    on the old memslots>                    |
...                                         |
   <action *continues* to occur until next  |
    memslot generation change, which may    |
    be never>                               |
                                            |

By incrementing the generation after synchronizing with kvm->srcu readers,
we ensure that the generation retrieved in (6) will become invalid soon
after (8).

Keeping the existing increment is not strictly necessary, but we
do keep it and just move it for consistency from update_memslots to
install_new_memslots.  It invalidates old cached MMIOs immediately,
instead of having to wait for the end of synchronize_srcu_expedited,
which makes the code more clearly correct in case CPU 1 is preempted
right after synchronize_srcu() returns.

To avoid halving the generation space in SPTEs, always presume that the
low bit of the generation is zero when reconstructing a generation number
out of an SPTE.  This effectively disables MMIO caching in SPTEs during
the call to synchronize_srcu_expedited.  Using the low bit this way is
somewhat like a seqcount---where the protected thing is a cache, and
instead of retrying we can simply punt if we observe the low bit to be 1.
