  On IOTLB entry removal, previous fixes took care of not
marking pages shared with other IOTLB entries as DONTDUMP.

However, if an IOTLB entry is spanned on multiple pages,
the other pages were kept as DODUMP while they might not
have been shared with other entries, increasing needlessly
the coredump size.

This patch addresses this issue by excluding only the
shared pages from madvise's DONTDUMP.

Fixes: dea092d0addb ("vhost: fix madvise arguments alignment")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org
