Use the MMU's role to get its effective SMEP value when injecting a fault into the guest. When walking L1's (nested) NPT while L2 is active, vCPU state will reflect L2, whereas NPT uses the host's (L1 in this case) CR0, CR4, EFER, etc... If L1 and L2 have different settings for SMEP and L1 does not have EFER.NX=1, this can result in an incorrect PFEC.FETCH when injecting #NPF.
