Subject: [PATCH 04/24] KVM: x86/mmu: Disable MMIO caching if MMIO value
 collides with L1TF

Disable MMIO caching if the MMIO value collides with the L1TF mitigation
that usurps high PFN bits.  In practice this should never happen as only
CPUs with SME support can generate such a collision (because the MMIO
value can theoretically get adjusted into legal memory), and no CPUs
exist that support SME and are susceptible to L1TF.  But, closing the
hole is trivial.
