Commit 95fb5b0258b7 ("kvm: x86/mmu: Support MMIO in the TDP MMU") caused the following WARNING on an Intel Ice Lake CPU: get_mmio_spte: detect reserved bits on spte, addr 0xb80a0, dump hierarchy: ------ spte 0xb80a0 level 5. ------ spte 0xfcd210107 level 4. ------ spte 0x1004c40107 level 3. ------ spte 0x1004c41107 level 2. ------ spte 0x1db00000000b83b6 level 1.

Note, this happens with the traditional MMU and EPT enabled, not with the newly introduced TDP MMU. Turns out, there was a subtle change in the above mentioned commit. Previously, walk_shadow_page_get_mmio_spte() was setting 'root' to 'iterator.level' which is returned by shadow_walk_init() and this equals to 'vcpu->arch.mmu->shadow_root_level'. Now, get_mmio_spte() sets it to 'int root = vcpu->arch.mmu->root_level'. The difference between 'root_level' and 'shadow_root_level' on CPUs supporting 5-level page tables is that in some case we don't want to use 5-level, in particular when 'cpuid_maxphyaddr(vcpu) <= 48' kvm_mmu_get_tdp_level() returns '4'. In case upper layer is not used, the corresponding SPTE will fail '__is_rsvd_bits_set()' check. Revert to using 'shadow_root_level'.
