KVM: MMU: always terminate page walks at level 1
is_last_gpte() is not equivalent to the pseudo-code given in commit 6bb69c9b69c31 ("KVM: MMU: simplify last_pte_bitmap") because an incorrect value of last_nonleaf_level may override the result even if level == 1. It is critical for is_last_gpte() to return true on level == 1 to terminate page walks. Otherwise memory corruption may occur as level is used as an index to various data structures throughout the page walking code. Even though the actual bug would be wherever the MMU is initialized (as in the previous patch), be defensive and ensure here that is_last_gpte() returns the correct value. This patch is also enough to fix CVE-2017-12188.
