KVM: Documentation: Update fast page fault for indirect sp

Clarify locking.rst to mention early that we're not enabling fast page
fault for indirect sps.  The previous wording is confusing, in that it
seems the proposed solution has been already implemented but it has not.

+A solution for indirect sp could be to pin the gfn, for example via
+kvm_vcpu_gfn_to_pfn_atomic, before the cmpxchg.  After the pinning:
 
 - We have held the refcount of pfn that means the pfn can not be freed and
   be reused for another gfn.
-- The pfn is writable that means it can not be shared between different gfns
+- The pfn is writable and therefore it cannot be shared between different gfns

 Then, we can ensure the dirty bitmaps is correctly set for a gfn.

 In the origin code, the spte can be fast updated (non-atomically) if the
