KVM: x86/mmu: Disallow guest from using !visible slots for page tables
Explicitly inject a page fault if guest attempts to use a !visible gfn as a page table. kvm_vcpu_gfn_to_hva_prot() will naturally handle the case where there is no memslot, but doesn't catch the scenario where the gfn points at a KVM-internal memslot. Letting the guest backdoor its way into accessing KVM-internal memslots isn't dangerous on its own, e.g. at worst the guest can crash itself, but disallowing the behavior will simplify fixing how KVM handles !visible guest root gfns (immediately synthesizing a triple fault when loading the root is architecturally wrong).
