KVM: x86/mmu: Drop RWX=0 SPTEs during ept_sync_page()
All of sync_page()'s existing checks filter out only !PRESENT gPTE, because without execute-only, all upper levels are guaranteed to be at least READABLE. However, if EPT with execute-only support is in use by L1, KVM can create an SPTE that is shadow-present but guest-inaccessible (RWX=0) if the upper level combined permissions are R (or RW) and the leaf EPTE is changed from R (or RW) to X. Because the EPTE is considered present when viewed in isolation, and no reserved bits are set, FNAME(prefetch_invalid_gpte) will consider the GPTE valid, and cause a not-present SPTE to be created. The SPTE is "correct": the guest translation is inaccessible because the combined protections of all levels yield RWX=0, and KVM will just redirect any vmexits to the guest. If EPT A/D bits are disabled, KVM can mistake the SPTE for an access-tracked SPTE, but again such confusion isn't fatal, as the "saved" protections are also RWX=0. However, creating a useless SPTE in general means that KVM messed up something, even if this particular goof didn't manifest as a functional bug. So, drop SPTEs whose new protections will yield a RWX=0 SPTE, and add a WARN in make_spte() to detect creation of SPTEs that will result in RWX=0 protections.
