[PATCH RESEND v15 07/10] KVM: arm: page logging 2nd stage fault handling

This patch adds support for handling 2nd stage page faults during migration,
it disables faulting in huge pages, and dissolves huge pages to normal pages.
In case migration is canceled huge pages are used again, if memory conditions
permit it. I applies cleanly on top patches series posted Dec 15:
https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/pipermail/kvmarm/2014-December/012826.html

Patch number #11 of the series has be dropped.

Change Log since last RESEND:
- fixed bug exposed __get_user_pages_fast(), when region is writable prevent
  write protection of pte so we can handle a future write fault and mark page
  dirty.
- Removed marking entire huge page dirty on initial dirty log read.
- don't dissolve non-writable huge pages
- Made updates based on Christoffers comments
  - renamed logging status function to memslot_is_logging()
  - changes few values to bool from
  - streamlined user_mem_abort() to eliminate extra conditional checks
