Subject: [PATCH 4.0 008/148] KVM: MMU: fix CR4.SMEP=1, CR0.WP=0 with shadow pages

4.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@...hat.com>

commit 898761158be7682082955e3efa4ad24725305fc7 upstream.

smep_andnot_wp is initialized in kvm_init_shadow_mmu and shadow pages
should not be reused for different values of it.  Thus, it has to be
added to the mask in kvm_mmu_pte_write.
