[PATCH] KVM: x86/mmu: Wrap sanity check on number of TDP MMU pages with KVM_PROVE_MMU

[Sean Christopherson]

Wrap the TDP MMU page counter in CONFIG_KVM_PROVE_MMU so that the sanity
check is omitted from production builds, and more importantly to remove
the atomic accesses to account pages.  A one-off memory leak in production
is relatively uninteresting, and a WARN_ON won't help mitigate a systemic
issue; it's as much about helping triage memory leaks as it is about
detecting them in the first place, and doesn't magically stop the leaks.
I.e. production environments will be quite sad if a severe KVM bug escapes,
regardless of whether or not KVM WARNs.
