KVM: MMU: Don't cache guest access bits in the shadow page table
This was once used to avoid accessing the guest pte when upgrading the shadow pte from read-only to read-write. But usually we need to set the guest pte dirty or accessed bits anyway, so this wasn't really exploited. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
