From: Chao Peng <chao.p.peng@linux.intel.com>
When geeting KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT exit, it indicates userspace needs to
do the memory conversion on the RAMBlock to turn the memory into desired
attribute, i.e., private/shared.
Currently only KVM_MEMORY_EXIT_FLAG_PRIVATE in flags is valid when
KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT happens.
Note, KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT makes sense only when the RAMBlock has
guest_memfd memory backend.
Note, KVM_EXIT_MEMORY_FAULT returns with -EFAULT, so special handling is
added.
When page is converted from shared to private, the original shared
memory can be discarded via ram_block_discard_range(). Note, shared
memory can be discarded only when it's not back'ed by hugetlb because
hugetlb is supposed to be pre-allocated and no need for discarding.

Changes in v4:
- open-coded ram_block_discard logic;
- change warn_report() to error_report(); (Daniel)
