[PATCH 03/15] KVM: x86/mmu: Introduce exception flag for unmapped GPAs

Introduce a flag in x86_exception which signals that a page walk failed
because a page table GPA wasn't backed by a memslot. This only applies to
page tables; the final physical address is not checked.
This extra flag is needed, because the normal page fault error code does
not contain a bit to signal this kind of fault.
Used in subsequent patches to give userspace information about translation
failure.
