If the guest is 32-bit, we should use 'quadrant' to adjust gpa
offset

Changlog v2:
- when level is PT_DIRECTORY_LEVEL, the 'offset' should be
'role.quadrant<< 8', thanks Avi for point it out

The calculation is really

shift = (PT32_LEVEL_BITS - PT64_LEVEL_BITS) * level;

So, the offset is q<< (PAGE_SHIFT - (PT32_LEVEL_BITS - PT64_LEVEL_BITS) * level - 2)?

Ugh, what I meant was

shift = PAGE_SHIFT - (PT_LEVEL_BITS - PT64_LEVEL_BITS) * level;
offset = q << shift

so,

pte_gpa = (sp->gfn << PAGE_SHIFT) + offset + (spte - sp->spt) * sizeof(pt_element_t)

No magic numbers please. Note it could work without the 'if (PTTYPE == 32)'.
