[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 1/4] drm/i915/gvt: reorder the shadow ppgtt update process by adding entry first

Guest i915 driver may update the ppgtt table just before this workload
is going to be submitted to the hardware by device model. This case
wasn't handled well by device model before, due to the small time
window between removing old ppgtt entry and adding the new one. Errors
occur when the workload is executed by hardware during that small time
window. This patch is to remove this time window by adding the new ppgtt
entry first and then remove the old one.
