kvm: Fix memory slot generation updates
Previous patch "kvm: Minor memory slot optimization" (b7f69c555ca43) overlooked the generation field of the memory slots. Re-using the original memory slots left us with with two slightly different memory slots with the same generation. To fix this, make update_memslots() take a new parameter to specify the last generation. This also makes generation management more explicit to avoid such problems in the future.
