KVM: MMU: invalidate and flush on spte small->large page size change 

Always invalidate spte and flush TLBs when changing page size, to make
sure different sized translations for the same address are never cached
in a CPU's TLB.

Currently the only case where this occurs is when a non-leaf spte pointer is
overwritten by a leaf, large spte entry. This can happen after dirty
logging is disabled on a memslot, for example.

Noticed by Andrea.
