Commit Message

This IOCTL enables atomic update of multiple memslots.
The userspace application provides a kvm_userspace_memory_region_list
containing a list of entries, each representing a modification to be
performed to a memslot.

Requests with invalidate_slot == 1 are pre-processed, because they
are ther DELETE or MOVE, and therefore the memslot must be first
replaced with a copy marked as KVM_MEMSLOT_INVALID, and then replaced.

Looks good; however, in the non-RFC I suggest adding documentation in 
this patch already (so no Reviewed-by yet).
