[PATCH 1/3] KVM: x86: add a new page track hook track_remove_slot

From: Yan Zhao
Date: Fri Nov 11 2022 - 04:57:53 EST


Page track hook track_remove_slot is used to notify users that a slot
has been removed and is called when a slot DELETE/MOVE is about to be
completed.

Users of this hook can drop write protections in the removed slot.

Note:
Since KVM_MR_MOVE currently never actually happens in KVM/QEMU, and has
never been properly supported in the external page track user, we just
use the hook track_remove_slot to notify users of the old slot being
removed.
