kvm: Avoid COW if KVM MMU is asynchronous

Done in v2:
---------->
If the KVM MMU is asynchronous (kernel does not support MMU_NOTIFIER),
we have to avoid COW for the guest memory. Otherwise we risk serious
breakage when guest pages change there physical locations due to COW
after fork. Seen when forking smbd during runtime via -smb.
