KVM: x86/mmu: Skip emulation on page fault iff 1+ SPs were unprotected
When doing "fast unprotection" of nested TDP page tables, skip emulation if and only if at least one gfn was unprotected, i.e. continue with emulation if simply resuming is likely to hit the same fault and risk putting the vCPU into an infinite loop. Note, it's entirely possible to get a false negative, e.g. if a different vCPU faults on the same gfn and unprotects the gfn first, but that's a relatively rare edge case, and emulating is still functionally ok, i.e. saving a few cycles by avoiding emulation isn't worth the risk of putting the vCPU into an infinite loop. Opportunistically rewrite the relevant comment to document in gory detail exactly what scenario the "fast unprotect" logic is handling.
