KVM: VMX: Track common EPTP for Hyper-V's paravirt TLB flush
Explicitly track the EPTP that is common to all vCPUs instead of
grabbing vCPU0's EPTP when invoking Hyper-V's paravirt TLB flush.
Tracking the EPTP will allow optimizing the checks when loading a new
EPTP and will also allow dropping ept_pointer_match, e.g. by marking
the common EPTP as invalid.

This also technically fixes a bug where KVM could theoretically flush an
invalid GPA if all vCPUs have an invalid root.  In practice, it's likely
impossible to trigger a remote TLB flush in such a scenario.  In any
case, the superfluous flush is completely benign.
