kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page B
kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page C

[ zaped multiple sps only need to call kvm_mmu_commit_zap_page once ]
In __kvm_mmu_free_some_pages() function, the free page number is
getted form 'vcpu->kvm->arch.n_free_mmu_pages' in loop, it will

In Documentation/kvm/mmu.txt:
gfn:
Either the guest page table containing the translations shadowed by this
page, or the base page frame for linear translations. See role.direct.
But in function FNAME(fetch)(), sp->gfn is incorrect when one of following
situations occurred:
1) guest is 32bit paging and the guest PDE maps a 4-MByte page
(backed by 4k host pages), FNAME(fetch)() miss handling the quadrant.
And if guest use pse-36, "table_gfn = gpte_to_gfn(gw->ptes[level - delta]);"
is incorrect.
2) guest is long mode paging and the guest PDPTE maps a 1-GByte page
(backed by 4k or 2M host pages).
So we fix it to suit to the document and suit to the code which
requires sp->gfn correct when sp->role.direct=1.
We use the goal mapping gfn(gw->gfn) to calculate the base page frame
for linear translations, it is simple and easy to be understood.

When sp->role.direct is set, sp->gfns does not contain any essential
information, leaf sptes reachable from this sp are for a continuous
guest physical memory range (a linear range).
So sp->gfns[i] (if it was set) equals to sp->gfn + i. (PT_PAGE_TABLE_LEVEL)
Obviously, it is not essential information, we can calculate it when need.
It means we don't need sp->gfns when sp->role.direct=1,
Thus we can save one page usage for every kvm_mmu_page.
Note:
Access to sp->gfns must be wrapped by kvm_mmu_page_get_gfn()
or kvm_mmu_page_set_gfn().
It is only exposed in FNAME(sync_page).

Two cases maybe happen in kvm_mmu_get_page() function:
- one case is, the goal sp is already in cache, if the sp is unsync,
we only need update it to assure this mapping is valid, but not
mark it sync and not write-protect sp->gfn since it not broke unsync
rule(one shadow page for a gfn)
- another case is, the goal sp not existed, we need create a new sp
for gfn, i.e, gfn (may)has another shadow page, to keep unsync rule,
we should sync(mark sync and write-protect) gfn's unsync shadow page.
After enabling multiple unsync shadows, we sync those shadow pages
only when the new sp not allow to become unsync(also for the unsyc
rule, the new rule is: allow all pte page become unsync)
