x86/mm/cpa: Avoid static protection checks on unmap

If the new pgprot has the PRESENT bit cleared, then conflicts vs. RW/NX are
completely irrelevant.

Before:

 1G pages checked:                    2
 1G pages sameprot:                   0
 1G pages preserved:                  0
 2M pages checked:                  540
 2M pages sameprot:                 466
 2M pages preserved:                 47
 4K pages checked:               800770
 4K pages set-checked:             7668

After:

 1G pages checked:                    2
 1G pages sameprot:                   0
 1G pages preserved:                  0
 2M pages checked:                  540
 2M pages sameprot:                 466
 2M pages preserved:                 47
 4K pages checked:               800709
 4K pages set-checked:             7668
