Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: fix overlap between SPTE_MMIO_MASK and generation

The SPTE_MMIO_MASK overlaps with the bits used to track MMIO
generation number.  A high enough generation number would overwrite the
SPTE_SPECIAL_MASK region and cause the MMIO SPTE to be misinterpreted;
likewise, setting bits 52 and 53 would also cause an incorrect generation
number to be read from the PTE.

Fixes: 6eeb4ef049e7 ("KVM: x86: assign two bits to track SPTE kinds")
