Instead, drop large mappings, which were the reason we dropped shadow.

What is the difference from the similar part in rmap_write_protect()?

=== from rmap_write_protect() ===

	/* check for huge page mappings */
	for (i = PT_DIRECTORY_LEVEL;
	     i < PT_PAGE_TABLE_LEVEL + KVM_NR_PAGE_SIZES; ++i) {
		rmapp = gfn_to_rmap(kvm, gfn, i);
		spte = rmap_next(kvm, rmapp, NULL);
		while (spte) {
			BUG_ON(!spte);
			BUG_ON(!(*spte & PT_PRESENT_MASK));
			BUG_ON((*spte & (PT_PAGE_SIZE_MASK|PT_PRESENT_MASK)) != (PT_PAGE_SIZE_MASK|PT_PRESENT_MASK));
			pgprintk("rmap_write_protect(large): spte %p %llx %lld\n", spte, *spte, gfn);
			if (is_writable_pte(*spte)) {
				drop_spte(kvm, spte,
					  shadow_trap_nonpresent_pte);
				--kvm->stat.lpages;
				spte = NULL;
				write_protected = 1;
			}
			spte = rmap_next(kvm, rmapp, spte);
		}
	}

Shouldn't be any.  I forgot to rmap_remove() and to update kvm_stat, 
thanks for pointing it out.

I'll post an updated patch.  We'll want to share code between the two 
later on.

Actually, drop_spte() calls rmap_remove(), so all that's broken is 
kvm->stat.lpages accounting.
