KVM: x86: flush TLB when D bit is manually changed.
When software changes D bit (either from 1 to 0, or 0 to 1), the corresponding TLB entity in the hardware won't be updated immediately. We should flush it to guarantee the consistence of D bit between TLB and MMU page table in memory. This is especially important when clearing the D bit, since it may cause false negatives in reporting dirtiness. Sanity test was done on my machine with Intel processor.
