KVM: x86/mmu: Restrict mapping level based on guest MTRR iff they're used
Restrict the mapping level for SPTEs based on the guest MTRRs if and only
if KVM may actually use the guest MTRRs to compute the "real" memtype.
For all forms of paging, guest MTRRs are purely virtual in the sense that
they are completely ignored by hardware, i.e. they affect the memtype
only if software manually consumes them. The only scenario where KVM
consumes the guest MTRRs is when shadow_memtype_mask is non-zero and the
guest has non-coherent DMA, in all other cases KVM simply leaves the PAT
field in SPTEs as '0' to encode WB memtype.
Note, KVM may still ultimately ignore guest MTRRs, e.g. if the backing
pfn is host MMIO, but false positives are ok as they only cause a slight
performance blip (unless the guest is doing weird things with its MTRRs,
which is extremely unlikely).
