KVM: x86/mmu: Walk host page tables to find THP mappings 

Explicitly walk the host page tables to identify THP mappings instead
of relying solely on the metadata in struct page.  This sets the stage
for using a common method of identifying huge mappings regardless of the
underlying implementation (HugeTLB vs THB vs DAX), and hopefully avoids
the pitfalls of relying on metadata to identify THP mappings, e.g. see
commit 169226f7e0 ("mm: thp: handle page cache THP correctly in
PageTransCompoundMap") and the need for KVM to explicitly check for a
THP compound page.  KVM will also naturally work with 1gb THP pages, if
they are ever supported.

Walking the tables for THP mappings is likely marginally slower than
querying metadata, but a future patch will reuse the walk to identify
HugeTLB mappings, at which point eliminating the existing VMA lookup for
HugeTLB will make this a net positive.
