    x86/HVM: properly reject "indirect" VRAM writes
    
    While ->count will only be different from 1 for "indirect" (data in
    guest memory) accesses, it being 1 does not exclude the request being an
    "indirect" one. Check both to be on the safe side, and bring the ->count
    part also in line with what ioreq_send_buffered() actually refuses to
    handle.
    
    Fixes: 3bbaaec09b1b ("x86/hvm: unify stdvga mmio intercept with standard 
mmio intercept")
