Subject: [PATCH 4/5] KVM: MMU: Report nx faults to the guest

Rith the recent guest page fault change, we perform access checks on our own
instead of relying on the cpu.  This means we have to perform the nx checks as
well.

Software like the google toolbar on windows appears to rely on this somehow.
