Stop tagging MMIO SPTEs with specific available bits and instead detect MMIO SPTEs by checking for their unique SPTE value. The value is guaranteed to be unique on shadow paging and NPT as setting reserved physical address bits on any other type of SPTE would consistute a KVM bug. Ditto for EPT, as creating a WX non-MMIO would also be a bug. Note, this approach is also future-compatibile with TDX, which will need to reflect MMIO EPT violations as #VEs into the guest. To create an EPT violation instead of a misconfig, TDX EPTs will need to have RWX=0, But, MMIO SPTEs will also be the only case where KVM clears SUPPRESS_VE, so MMIO SPTEs will still be guaranteed to have a unique value within a given MMU context. The main motivation is to make it easier to reason about which types of SPTEs use which available bits. As a happy side effect, this frees up two more bits for storing the MMIO generation.
