Currently during start dirty logging, if we're with init-all-set, we write protect huge pages and leave normal pages untouched, for that we can enable dirty logging for these pages lazily. Actually enable dirty logging lazily for huge pages is feasible too, which not only reduces the time of start dirty logging, also greatly reduces side-effect on guest when there is high dirty rate.
