I don't know whether you should introduce this macro, since it's not used in
this patch.

This chunk belongs to the previous patch.

I don't quite think this place is the good place to explain "suppress #VE" bit
staff. There are other places that sets non-present SPTE too. Perhaps putting
the comment around the macro 'SHADOW_NONPRESENT_VALUE' is better.
