KVM/x86: Call smp_wmb() before increasing tlbs_dirty
Update spte before increasing tlbs_dirty to make sure no tlb flush in lost after spte is zapped. This pairs with the barrier in the kvm_flush_remote_tlbs(). Signed-off-by: Lan Tianyu <tianyu.lan@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
