[RESEND PATCH v7 3/4] arm: dirty log write protect management support

[Mario Smarduch]

Hi Paolo,
   for ARM dirty page logging we have couple functions
that are generic.

- kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log - is identical to x86 version
- kvm_flush_remote_tlbs - ARM version does hardware broadcast
  it's different from the generic one in kvm_main.c

How to proceed to make these generic? Please see below
from Christoffer.

Current patch moves kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() into kvm_main.c
and labels it and kvm_flush_remote_tlbs weak.

Please advise.

Thanks,
- Mario
