This is a preliminary clean up for TDX which complicates KVM page fault
execution path. simplify those execution path as preparation.

The current kvm page fault handlers passes around many arguments to the
functions.
To simplify those arguments and local variables, introduce data structure,
struct kvm_page_fault,  to hold those arguments, variables, and passes around the pointer
to struct kvm_page_fault.

struct kvm_page_fault is allocated on stack on the caller of kvm fault handler,
kvm_mmu_do_page_fault().
And then  push down the pointer to inner functions step by step.
The conversion order is as follows
. kvm_mmu_do_page_fault() with introducing struct kvm_page_fault
. kvm_mmu.page_fault(): kvm_tdp_page_fault(), nonpaging_page_fault(), FNAME(page_fault)
. direct_page_fault()
. try_async_pf()
. page_fault_handle_page_track()
. handle_abnormal_pfn()
. fast_page_fault()
. __direct_map()
. kvm_tdp_mmu_map()
. FNAME(fetch)

Probably more functions should be converted. or some should not converted.
Only code refactoring and no functional change is intended.

Isaku Yamahata (10):
