[PATCH v2 15/22] KVM: x86: Remove manual pfn lookup when retrying #PF after failed emulation

[Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>]

Drop the manual pfn look when retrying an instruction that KVM failed to
emulation in response to a #PF due to a write-protected gfn.  Now that KVM
sets EMULTYPE_ALLOW_RETRY_PF if and only if the page fault hit a write-
protected gfn, i.e. if and only if there's a writable memslot, there's no
need to redo the lookup to avoid retrying an instruction that failed on
emulated MMIO (no slot, or a write to a read-only slot).

I.e. KVM will never attempt to retry an instruction that failed on
emulated MMIO, whereas that was not the case prior to the introduction of
RET_PF_WRITE_PROTECTED.
