[PATCH v2 19/26] KVM: x86/mmu: Refactor drop_large_spte()

[David Matlack]

drop_large_spte() drops a large SPTE if it exists and then flushes TLBs.
Its helper function, __drop_large_spte(), does the drop without the
flush.

In preparation for eager page splitting, which will need to sometimes
flush when dropping large SPTEs (and sometimes not), push the flushing
logic down into __drop_large_spte() and add a bool parameter to control
it.

No functional change intended.
