KVM: x86/mmu: Properly account NX huge page workaround for nonpaging MMUs

Account and track NX huge pages for nonpaging MMUs so that a future
enhancement to precisely check if a shadow page can't be replaced by a NX
huge page doesn't get false positives.  Without correct tracking, KVM can
get stuck in a loop if an instruction is fetching and writing data on the
same huge page, e.g. KVM installs a small executable page on the fetch
fault, replaces it with an NX huge page on the write fault, and faults
again on the fetch.

Alternatively, and perhaps ideally, KVM would simply not enforce the
workaround for nonpaging MMUs.  The guest has no page tables to abuse
and KVM is guaranteed to switch to a different MMU on CR0.PG being
toggled so there's no security or performance concerns.  However, getting
make_spte() to play nice now and in the future is unnecessarily complex.

In the current code base, make_spte() can enforce the mitigation if TDP
is enabled or the MMU is indirect, but make_spte() may not always have a
vCPU/MMU to work with, e.g. if KVM were to support in-line huge page
promotion when disabling dirty logging.

Without a vCPU/MMU, KVM could either pass in the correct information
and/or derive it from the shadow page, but the former is ugly and the
latter subtly non-trivial due to the possibility of direct shadow pages
in indirect MMUs.  Given that using shadow paging with an unpaged guest
is far from top priority _and_ has been subjected to the workaround since
its inception, keep it simple and just fix the accounting glitch.
