Consolidate kvm_mmu_alloc_page() and kvm_mmu_alloc_shadow_page() under
the latter so that all shadow page allocation and initialization happens
in one place.

No functional change intended.

To reduce churn later on, what about opportunistically grabbing vcpu->kvm in a
local variable in this patch?

Actually, at that point, it's a super trivial change, so you can probably just drop 

	KVM: x86/mmu: Replace vcpu with kvm in kvm_mmu_alloc_shadow_page()

and do the vcpu/kvm swap as part of

	KVM: x86/mmu: Pass memory caches to allocate SPs separately

I'm not sure it's any less churn, it's just doing the same amount of
changes in fewer commits. Is there a benefit of using less commits? I
can only think of downsides (harder to review, harder to bisect).
