If the return is an overloaded "long", then there's no need for @level, i.e. do
the level=>size conversion in this helper.

Do we want to restrict this to the TDP MMU?  Not for any particular reason, mostly
just to keep moving towards officially deprecating/removing TDP support from the
shadow MMU.

Going with the "long" idea, this becomes:

		end = (gpa & KVM_HPAGE_MASK(level)) + KVM_HPAGE_SIZE(level);
		return min(size, end - gpa);

though I would vote for a:

		break;

so that the happy path is nicely isolated at the end of the function.
