Originally, when log_clear gets called, log_clear calls
hvf_set_dirty_tracking to write-protect memory slots whose dirty-bits
are cleared.

Calling hvf_set_dirty_tracking means that memory slots will be
look up and the lock for memory slots will be held during the call.

We can use the parameter `section` passed by the caller to determine the
pages that need to be write-protected. Compared to the original method,
this saves time.

Moreover, this makes only pages whose dirty-bits
are cleared write-protected instead of making the whole memory slot
write-protected.
