    x86/shadow: suppress "fast fault path" optimization without reserved bits
    
    When none of the physical address bits in PTEs are reserved, we can't
    create any 4k (leaf) PTEs which would trigger reserved bit faults. Hence
    the present SHOPT_FAST_FAULT_PATH machinery needs to be suppressed in
    this case, which is most easily achieved by never creating any magic
    entries.
    
    To compensate a little, eliminate sh_write_p2m_entry_post()'s impact on
    such hardware.
    
    While at it, also avoid using an MMIO magic entry when that would
    truncate the incoming GFN.
