KVM: SVM: fix random segfaults with NPT enabled
(cherry picked from commit 44874f84918e37b64bec6df1587e5fe2fdf6ab62)
This patch introduces a guest TLB flush on every NPF exit in KVM. This fixes
random segfaults and #UD exceptions in the guest seen under some workloads
(e.g. long running compile workloads or tbench). A kernbench run with and
without that fix showed that it has a slowdown lower than 0.5%
