In shadow page table, only leaf SPs may be marked as unsync;
instead, for non-leaf SPs, we store the number of unsynced
children in unsync_children. Therefore, in kvm_mmu_sync_root(),
sp->unsync shall always be zero for the root SP and there is
no need to check it. Remove the check, and add a warning
inside mmu_sync_children() to assert that the flags are used
properly.
While at it, move the warning from mmu_need_write_protect()
to kvm_unsync_page().
