Sean Christopherson d2cbae37c3 KVM: x86: Zap the oldest MMU pages, not the newest
commit 8fc517267f upstream.

Walk the list of MMU pages in reverse in kvm_mmu_zap_oldest_mmu_pages().
The list is FIFO, meaning new pages are inserted at the head and thus
the oldest pages are at the tail.  Using a "forward" iterator causes KVM
to zap MMU pages that were just added, which obliterates guest
performance once the max number of shadow MMU pages is reached.

Fixes: 6b82ef2c9c ("KVM: x86/mmu: Batch zap MMU pages when recycling oldest pages")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
