Treat invalid shadow pages as obsolete to fix a bug where an obsolete
and invalid page with a non-zero root count could become non-obsolete
due to mmu_valid_gen wrapping. The bug is largely theoretical with the
current code base, as an unsigned long will effectively never wrap on
64-bit KVM, and userspace would have to deliberately stall a vCPU in
order to keep an obsolete invalid page on the active list while
simultaneously modifying memslots billions of times to trigger a wrap.
The obvious alternative is to use a 64-bit value for mmu_valid_gen,
but it's actually desirable to go in the opposite direction, i.e. using
a smaller 8-bit value to reduce KVM's memory footprint by 8 bytes per
shadow page, and relying on proper treatment of invalid pages instead of
preventing the generation from wrapping.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
