Refactor kvm_mmu_alloc_shadow_page() to receive the caches from which it will allocate the various pieces of memory for shadow pages as a parameter, rather than deriving them from the vcpu pointer. This will be useful in a future commit where shadow pages are allocated during VM ioctls for eager page splitting, and thus will use a different set of caches. Preemptively pull the caches out all the way to kvm_mmu_get_shadow_page() since eager page splitting will not be calling kvm_mmu_alloc_shadow_page() directly. No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
