KVM: x86/mmu: Bypass __handle_changed_spte() when aging TDP MMU SPTEs
Drop everything except the "tdp_mmu_spte_changed" tracepoint part of __handle_changed_spte() when aging SPTEs in the TDP MMU, as clearing the accessed status doesn't affect the SPTE's shadow-present status, whether or not the SPTE is a leaf, or change the PFN. I.e. none of the functional updates handled by __handle_changed_spte() are relevant. Losing __handle_changed_spte()'s sanity checks does mean that a bug could theoretical go unnoticed, but that scenario is extremely unlikely, e.g. would effectively require a misconfigured MMU or a locking bug elsewhere.
