    x86/HVM: drop memory_type_changed() call from hvm_set_guest_pat()
    
    The commit aa9114edd added the needless function call memory_type_changed,
    it is unnessary because the PAT content does not influence the result of
    epte_get_entry_emt(). If it is called, the cache will be flushed excessively
    and make the nested guest very slowly, just like blocked.
