[PATCH 6.12.y 2/2] KVM: Only bind memslot to guest_memfd instance for CREATE operations

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

[ Upstream commit 513333a5546017da2a4a6173bfb70372f83733b3 ]

For additional defense-in-depth, and to avoid having to handle impossible
unwind scenarios when binding to a memslot fails, bind a memslot to a gmem
instance only for CREATE operations, i.e. don't attempt to establish a
binding for MOVE and FLAGS_ONLY operations.  And when FLAGS_ONLY operations
are eventually supported (this is currently all dead code), creating a new
binding would be incorrect; KVM instead needs to do a 1:1 replacement of
the existing binding, i.e. FLAGS_ONLY will need its own dedicated handling.

Update the relevant TODO to make a better guess as to what needs to be done
to support toggling dirty logging for guest_memfd memslots.

Because it's dead code, no functional change intended.
