[PATCH 20/40] KVM: MMU: Inherit a shadow page's guest level count from vcpu setup

[Avi Kivity]

Instead of "calculating" it on every shadow page allocation, set it once
when switching modes, and copy it when allocating pages.

This doesn't buy us much, but sets up the stage for inheriting more
information related to the mmu setup.
