Takuya Yoshikawa 75d61fbcf5 KVM: set_memory_region: Disallow changing read-only attribute later
As Xiao pointed out, there are a few problems with it:
 - kvm_arch_commit_memory_region() write protects the memory slot only
   for GET_DIRTY_LOG when modifying the flags.
 - FNAME(sync_page) uses the old spte value to set a new one without
   checking KVM_MEM_READONLY flag.

Since we flush all shadow pages when creating a new slot, the simplest
fix is to disallow such problematic flag changes: this is safe because
no one is doing such things.
