[PATCH 13/47] KVM: VMX: conditionally disable 2M pages

[Avi Kivity]

From: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@xxxxxxxxxx>

Disable usage of 2M pages if VMX_EPT_2MB_PAGE_BIT (bit 16) is clear
in MSR_IA32_VMX_EPT_VPID_CAP and EPT is enabled.

[avi: s/largepages_disabled/largepages_enabled/ to avoid negative logic]
