Subject: [PATCH v2 05/30] KVM: x86/mmu: Check for present SPTE when clearing
 dirty bit in TDP MMU

Explicitly check for present SPTEs when clearing dirty bits in the TDP
MMU.  This isn't strictly required for correctness, as setting the dirty
bit in a defunct SPTE will not change the SPTE from !PRESENT to PRESENT.
However, the guarded MMU_WARN_ON() in spte_ad_need_write_protect() would
complain if anyone actually turned on KVM's MMU debugging.
