    KVM: x86/mmu: Treat NX as a valid SPTE bit for NPT
    
    [ Upstream commit 6c6ab524cfae0799e55c82b2c1d61f1af0156f8d ]
    
    Treat the NX bit as valid when using NPT, as KVM will set the NX bit when
    the NX huge page mitigation is enabled (mindblowing) and trigger the WARN
    that fires on reserved SPTE bits being set.
    
    KVM has required NX support for SVM since commit b26a71a1a5b9 ("KVM: SVM:
    Refuse to load kvm_amd if NX support is not available") for exactly this
    reason, but apparently it never occurred to anyone to actually test NPT
    with the mitigation enabled.
