This is kind of fallout from XSA-427 investigations, partly related to
there having been a more intrusive first approach.

Most patches aren't really dependent upon one another, so can probably
go in independently (as they get acked).

A few patches from v2 went in, but there are also two new OOS patches in
v3. See individual patches for what has changed (in response to review
comments).

01: reduce explicit log-dirty recording for HVM
02: call sh_update_cr3() directly from sh_page_fault()
03: don't generate bogus "domain dying" trace entry from sh_page_fault()
04: use lighter weight mode checks
05: move OOS functions to their own file
06: restrict OOS allocation to when it's really needed
07: OOS doesn't track VAs anymore
08: sh_rm_write_access_from_sl1p() is HVM-only
09: drop is_hvm_...() where easily possible
10: make monitor table create/destroy more consistent
11: vCPU-s never have "no mode"
12: adjust monitor table prealloc amount
