This change makes !shadow_present_mask checks in FNAME(sync_spte) and
make_spte() pointless as shadow_present_mask will never be zero.

And the first sentence below in make_spte() also becomes stale. I suppose
this needs an update.

	/*
	 * For the EPT case, shadow_present_mask is 0 if hardware
	 * supports exec-only page table entries.  In that case,
	 * ACC_USER_MASK and shadow_user_mask are used to represent
	 * read access.  See FNAME(gpte_access) in paging_tmpl.h.
