KVM: MMU: fix writable sync sp mapping
While we sync many unsync sp at one time(in mmu_sync_children()), we may mapping the spte writable, it's dangerous, if one unsync sp's mapping gfn is another unsync page's gfn. For example: SP1.pte[0] = P SP2.gfn's pfn = P [SP1.pte[0] = SP2.gfn's pfn] First, we write protected SP1 and SP2, but SP1 and SP2 are still the unsync sp. Then, sync SP1 first, it will detect SP1.pte[0].gfn only has one unsync-sp, that is SP2, so it will mapping it writable, but we plan to sync SP2 soon, at this point, the SP2->unsync is not reliable since later we sync SP2 but SP2->gfn is already writable. So the final result is: SP2 is the sync page but SP2.gfn is writable. This bug will corrupt guest's page table, fixed by mark read-only mapping if the mapped gfn has shadow pages.
