[Patch v2 1/2] KVM: x86/mmu: Allocate page table pages on TDP splits during dirty log enable on the underlying page's numa node

[Vipin Sharma <vipinsh@google.com>]

Huge pages are split when dirty log is enabled. New page table pages are
allocated based on the current thread NUMA node or mempolicy. This
causes inefficient page table accesses if underlying page is on a
different NUMA node

Allocate page table pages on the same NUMA node as the underlying huge
page when dirty log is enabled and huge pages are split.

The performance gain during the pre-copy phase of live migrations of a
416 vCPUs and 11 TiB memory VM  on a 8 node host was seen in the range
of 130% to 150%.
