KVM: Disallow toggling KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD on an existing memslot
Reject attempts to disable KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD on a memslot that was
initially created with a guest_memfd binding, as KVM doesn't support
toggling KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD on existing memslots. KVM prevents enabling
KVM_MEM_GUEST_MEMFD, but doesn't prevent clearing the flag.
Failure to reject the new memslot results in a use-after-free due to KVM
not unbinding from the guest_memfd instance. Unbinding on a FLAGS_ONLY
change is easy enough, and can/will be done as a hardening measure (in
anticipation of KVM supporting dirty logging on guest_memfd at some point),
but fixing the use-after-free would only address the immediate symptom.
