[PATCH] KVM: x86: drop erroneous mmu_check_root() from fast_pgd_switch()

[Vitaly Kuznetsov]

Undesired triple fault gets injected to L1 guest on SVM when L2 is
launched with certain CR3 values. It seems the mmu_check_root()
check in fast_pgd_switch() is wrong: first of all we don't know
if 'new_pgd' is a GPA or a nested GPA and, in case it is a nested
GPA, we can't check it with kvm_is_visible_gfn().

The problematic code path is:
nested_svm_vmrun()
  ...
  nested_prepare_vmcb_save()
    kvm_set_cr3(..., nested_vmcb->save.cr3)
      kvm_mmu_new_pgd()
        ...
        mmu_check_root() -> TRIPLE FAULT

The mmu_check_root() check in fast_pgd_switch() seems to be
superfluous even for non-nested case: when GPA is outside of the
visible range cached_root_available() will fail for non-direct
roots (as we can't have a matching one on the list) and we don't
seem to care for direct ones.

Also, raising #TF immediately when a non-existent GFN is written to CR3
doesn't seem to mach architecture behavior.

- The patch fixes the immediate issue and doesn't seem to break any
  tests even with shadow PT but I'm not sure I properly understood
  why the check was there in the first place. Please review!
