[PATCH v6 06/11] mm: Add has_fast_aging to struct mmu_notifier

has_fast_aging should be set by subscribers that non-trivially implement
fast_only versions of both test_young() and clear_young().

Fast aging must be opt-in. For a subscriber that has not been
enlightened with "fast aging", the test/clear_young() will behave
identically whether or not fast_only is given.

Given that KVM is the only test/clear_young() implementer, we could
instead add an equivalent check in KVM, but doing so would incur an
indirect function call every time, even if the notifier ends up being a
no-op.

Add mm_has_fast_young_notifiers() in case a caller wants to know if it
should skip many calls to the mmu notifiers that may not be necessary
(like MGLRU look-around).
