Even if enable_ept == false, we could have already scheduled or flushed
the TLB soon due to one of 1) nested_vmx_transition_tlb_flush 2)
vpid_sync_context in prepare_vmcs02 3) the processor doing it for
!enable_vpid.

So for !enable_ept only KVM_REQ_MMU_SYNC is needed, not
KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH_CURRENT I think.  Worth adding a TODO?
