KVM: x86: Refactor the MMIO SPTE generation handling
The code to propagate the memslots generation number into MMIO sptes is a bit convoluted. The "what" is relatively straightfoward, e.g. the comment explaining which bits go where is quite readable, but the "how" requires a lot of staring to understand what is happening. For example, 'MMIO_GEN_LOW_SHIFT' is actually used to calculate the high bits of the spte, while 'MMIO_SPTE_GEN_LOW_SHIFT' is used to calculate the low bits. Refactor the code to: - use #defines whose values align with the bits defined in the comment - use consistent code for both the high and low mask - explicitly highlight the handling of bit 0 (update in-progress flag) - explicitly call out that the defines are for MMIO sptes (to avoid confusion with the per-vCPU MMIO cache, which uses the full memslots generation) In addition to making the code a little less magical, this paves the way for moving the update in-progress flag to bit 63 without having to simultaneously rewrite all of the MMIO spte code.
