When KVM emulates a nested VMEntry (L1->L2 VMEntry), it switches mmu root page. If nEPT is used, this will happen from kvm_init_shadow_ept_mmu()->__kvm_mmu_new_cr3() and otherwise it will happpen from nested_vmx_load_cr3()->kvm_mmu_new_cr3(). Either case, __kvm_mmu_new_cr3() will use fast_cr3_switch() in attempt to switch to a previously cached root page. In case fast_cr3_switch() finds a matching cached root page, it will set it in mmu->root_hpa and request KVM_REQ_LOAD_CR3 such that on next entry to guest, KVM will set root HPA in appropriate hardware fields (e.g. vmcs->eptp). In addition, fast_cr3_switch() calls kvm_x86_ops->tlb_flush() in order to flush TLB as MMU root page was replaced. This works as mmu->root_hpa, which vmx_flush_tlb() use, was already replaced in cached_root_available(). However, this may result in unnecessary INVEPT execution because a KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH may have already been requested. For example, by prepare_vmcs02() in case L1 don't use VPID. Therefore, change fast_cr3_switch() to just request TLB flush on next entry to guest.
