KVM: x86/mmu: include EFER.LMA in extended mmu role
Incorporate EFER.LMA into kvm_mmu_extended_role, as it used to compute the guest root level and is not reflected in kvm_mmu_page_role.level when TDP is in use. When simply running the guest, it is impossible for EFER.LMA and kvm_mmu.root_level to get out of sync, as the guest cannot transition from PAE paging to 64-bit paging without toggling CR0.PG, i.e. without first bouncing through a different MMU context. And stuffing guest state via KVM_SET_SREGS{,2} also ensures a full MMU context reset. However, if KVM_SET_SREGS{,2} is followed by KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE, e.g. to set guest state when migrating the VM while L2 is active, the vCPU state will reflect L2, not L1. If L1 is using TDP for L2, then root_mmu will have been configured using L2's state, despite not being used for L2. If L2.EFER.LMA != L1.EFER.LMA, and L2 is using PAE paging, then root_mmu will be configured for guest PAE paging, but will match the mmu_role for 64-bit paging and cause KVM to not reconfigure root_mmu on the next nested VM-Exit. Alternatively, the root_mmu's role could be invalidated after a successful KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE that yields vcpu->arch.mmu != vcpu->arch.root_mmu, i.e. that switches the active mmu to guest_mmu, but doing so is unnecessarily tricky, and not even needed if L1 and L2 do have the same role (e.g., they are both 64-bit guests and run with the same CR4).
