Avi Kivity a25f7e1f8c KVM: Reduce misfirings of the fork detector
The kvm mmu tries to detects forks by looking for repeated writes to a
page table.  If it sees a fork, it unshadows the page table so the page
table copying can proceed at native speed instead of being emulated.

However, the detector also triggered on simple demand paging access patterns:
a linear walk of memory would of course cause repeated writes to the same
pagetable page, causing it to unshadow prematurely.

Fix by resetting the fork detector if we detect a demand fault.
