[PATCH 5/5] KVM: riscv: Fast-path dirty logging write faults

With dirty logging enabled, guest writes often fault on an existing 4K
G-stage leaf that was write-protected only for dirty tracking. The slow
path still performs the full fault handling flow and takes mmu_lock for
write, even though the page-table shape does not change.

x86 handles the analogous case in its fast page fault path by atomically
making a writable SPTE writable again when the fault is only a
write-protection fault. Add the same style of fast path for RISC-V. If a
write fault hits an existing 4K leaf in a writable dirty-log memslot,
mark the page dirty and atomically set the PTE writable and dirty under
the read side of mmu_lock.

The dirty bitmap is updated before the PTE becomes writable again. The
PTE D bit is also set so systems that trap on a clear D bit do not fall
back to the slow path for a writable but clean PTE.
