Use kvm_pfn_t, a.k.a. u64, for the local 'pfn' variable when retrieving
a so called "remapped" hva/pfn pair.  In theory, the hva could resolve to
a pfn in high memory on a 32-bit kernel.

This bug was inadvertantly exposed by commit bd2fae8da794 ("KVM: do not
assume PTE is writable after follow_pfn"), which added an error PFN value
to the mix, causing gcc to comlain about overflowing the unsigned long.

I don't actually know that it's possible for a remapped pfn to be a 64-bit
value on a stock kernel.  But, backporting a one-liner is far easier and
safer than trying to audit all possible flows.  :-)
