Subject: [PATCH 43/58] KVM: MMU: Don't cache guest access bits in the shadow page table
This was once used to avoid accessing the guest pte when upgrading
the shadow pte from read-only to read-write. But usually we need
to set the guest pte dirty or accessed bits anyway, so this wasn't
really exploited.
