[Xen-devel] [PATCH for-4.9] x86/mm: Placate DEADCODE Coverity warning

[Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

_PAGE_GNTTAB is only used in debug builds of Xen; in release builds, it has
the value 0.  Coverity complains that "l1e_get_flags(l1e) & 0" is logically
dead.

Add an extra condition into the logic to skip the flag check if _PAGE_GNTTAB
is 0.

No functional change.
