[PATCH v3 08/11] KVM: x86/MMU: Allow NX huge pages to be disabled on a per-vm basis

[Ben Gardon <bgardon@google.com>]

In some cases, the NX hugepage mitigation for iTLB multihit is not
needed for all guests on a host. Allow disabling the mitigation on a
per-VM basis to avoid the performance hit of NX hugepages on trusted
workloads.
