[PATCH v4 01/12] kvm: Decouple memory attribute check from kvm_guest_memfd_supported

[Michael Roth <michael.roth@amd.com>]

From: Xiaoyao Li <xiaoyao.li@intel.com>

With the mmap support of guest memfd, KVM allows userspace to create
guest memfd serving as normal non-private memory for X86 DEFAULT VM.
However, KVM doesn't support private memory attribute for X86 DEFAULT
VM.

Make kvm_guest_memfd_supported not rely on KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE
and check KVM_MEMORY_ATTRIBUTE_PRIVATE separately when the machine
requires guest_memfd to serve as private memory.

This allows QEMU to create guest memfd with mmap to serve as the memory
backend for X86 DEFAULT VM.
