When the VM exits, we must call put_page() for every page referenced in the

Without this patch, we usually leak 30-50 host pages (120 - 200 KiB with 4 KiB
pages). The maximum number of pages leaked is the size of our shadow TLB, 64
pages.

The obvious question is "why didn't we see this before?" Basically, we'd never
looked for it, and since most of our work was in the kernel we always ended up
rebooting before exhausting host memory.
Since it's such a large leak, and a simple fix, please commit this for 2.6.28.
This patch does apply to kvm.git with fuzz, but if you prefer I can send a
separate patch for that later.
Applied on both master and the 2.6.28 queue.
