[PATCH 1/4] MMU_NOTIFIERS: add set_pte_at_notify()
this macro allow setting the pte in the shadow page tables directly
instead of flushing the shadow page table entry and then get vmexit in
order to set it.
This function is optimzation for kvm/users of mmu_notifiers for COW
pages, it is useful for kvm when ksm is used beacuse it allow kvm
not to have to recive VMEXIT and only then map the shared page into
the mmu shadow pages, but instead map it directly at the same time
linux map the page into the host page table.
this mmu notifer macro is working by calling to callback that will map
directly the physical page into the shadow page tables.
(users of mmu_notifiers that didnt implement the set_pte_at_notify()
call back will just recive the mmu_notifier_invalidate_page callback)
