[PATCH] KVM/nVMX: Do not validate that posted_intr_desc_addr is page aligned
The spec only requires the posted interrupt descriptor address to be 64-bytes aligned (i.e. bits[0:5] == 0). Using page_address_valid also forces the address to be page aligned. Only validate that the address does not cross the maximum physical address without enforcing a page alignment.
