KVM: x86/mmu: Unconditionally zap unsync SPs when creating >4k SP at GFN

When creating a new upper-level shadow page, zap unsync shadow pages at
the same target gfn instead of attempting to sync the pages.  This fixes
a bug where an unsync shadow page could be sync'd with an incompatible
context, e.g. wrong smm, is_guest, etc... flags.  In practice, the bug is
relatively benign as sync_page() is all but guaranteed to fail its check
that the guest's desired gfn (for the to-be-sync'd page) matches the
current gfn associated with the shadow page.  I.e. kvm_sync_page() would
end up zapping the page anyways.

Alternatively, __kvm_sync_page() could be modified to explicitly verify
the mmu_role of the unsync shadow page is compatible with the current MMU
context.  But, except for this specific case, __kvm_sync_page() is called
iff the page is compatible, e.g. the transient sync in kvm_mmu_get_page()
requires an exact role match, and the call from kvm_sync_mmu_roots() is
only synchronizing shadow pages from the current MMU (which better be
compatible or KVM has problems).  And as described above, attempting to
sync shadow pages when creating an upper-level shadow page is unlikely
to succeed, e.g. zero successful syncs were observed when running Linux
guests despite over a million attempts.
