KVM: x86/mmu: Fix race condition in direct_page_fault

commit 47b0c2e4c220f2251fd8dcfbb44479819c715e15 upstream.

make_mmu_pages_available() must be called with mmu_lock held for write.
However, if the TDP MMU is used, it will be called with mmu_lock held for
read.
This function does nothing unless shadow pages are used, so there is no
race unless nested TDP is used.
Since nested TDP uses shadow pages, old shadow pages may be zapped by this
function even when the TDP MMU is enabled.
Since shadow pages are never allocated by kvm_tdp_mmu_map(), a race
condition can be avoided by not calling make_mmu_pages_available() if the
TDP MMU is currently in use.

I encountered this when repeatedly starting and stopping nested VM.
It can be artificially caused by allocating a large number of nested TDP
SPTEs.

For example, the following BUG and general protection fault are caused in
the host kernel.
