All such go through notdirty_write(), which has a convenient tracepoint.  Recall there are 
migration and vga dirty pages as well, which also go through here, so disabling vga if 
possible may help.

Code stuff should then go through tb_invalidate_phys_range_fast(), so not 
tb_invalidate_phys_page() at all.
