KVM: x86/mmu: Trigger unprotect logic only on write-protection page faults
Trigger KVM's various "unprotect gfn" paths if and only if the page fault was a write to a write-protected gfn. To do so, add a new page fault return code, RET_PF_WRITE_PROTECTED, to explicitly and precisely track such page faults. If a page fault requires emulation for any MMIO (or any reason besides write-protection), trying to unprotect the gfn is pointless and risks putting the vCPU into an infinite loop. E.g. KVM will put the vCPU into an infinite loop if the vCPU manages to trigger MMIO on a page table walk.
