KVM: MMU: Keep a reverse mapping of non-writable translations

The current kvm mmu only reverse maps writable translation.  This is used
to write-protect a page in case it becomes a pagetable.

But with swapping support, we need a reverse mapping of read-only pages as
well:  when we evict a page, we need to remove any mapping to it, whether
writable or not.
