Move sharing locks above altp2m to avoid locking order violation and crashing
the hypervisor during unsharing operations when altp2m is active.

Applying mem_access settings or remapping gfns in altp2m views will
automatically unshare the page if it was shared previously. Also,
disallow nominating pages for which there are pre-existing altp2m
mem_access settings or remappings present. However, allow altp2m
to populate altp2m views with shared entries during lazycopy as
unsharing will automatically propagate the change to these entries in
altp2m views as well.

v5: Allow only lazycopy to copy shared entries to altp2m views
    Use get_gfn_type_access for unsharing as get_entry doesn't do that

This looks a lot better.  One comment...

You need to altp2m_list_[un]lock(d) around this loop, don't you?

Everything else looks great, thanks.

Oh, one more thing; since you're probably respinning it anyway, could
you add the following (or something like it) to the changelog:

"While we're here, use the appropriate get_entry() wrappers."

Just to clue people in that the change is cosmetic.

Thanks.

Sure, no problem. Is the rest of the patch fine this way from your side?
