This patch fixes 32 bit legacy paging with NPT enabled. The mmu_check_root call on the top-level of the loop causes root_gfn to take values (in the tdp_enabled path) which are outside of guest memory. So the mmu_check_root call fails at some point in the loop interation causing the guest to tiple-fault. This patch changes the mmu_check_root calls to the places where they are really necessary. As a side-effect it introduces a check for the root of a pae page table too.
