KVM: MMU: Reinstate pte prefetch on invlpg

Commit fb341f57 removed the pte prefetch on guest invlpg, citing guest races.
However, the SDM is adamant that prefetch is allowed:

  "The processor may create entries in paging-structure caches for
   translations required for prefetches and for accesses that are a
   result of speculative execution that would never actually occur
   in the executed code path."

And, in fact, there was a race in the prefetch code: we picked up the pte
without the mmu lock held, so an older invlpg could install the pte over
a newer invlpg.

Reinstate the prefetch logic, but this time note whether another invlpg has
executed using a counter.  If a race occured, do not install the pte.
