If a recalculation NPT fault hasn't been handled explicitly in
hvm_hap_nested_page_fault() then it's potentially safe to retry -
US bit has been re-instated in PTE and any real fault would be correctly
re-raised next time.
This covers a specific case of migration with vGPU assigned on AMD:
global log-dirty is enabled and causes immediate recalculation NPT
fault in MMIO area upon access. This type of fault isn't described
explicitly in hvm_hap_nested_page_fault (this isn't called on
EPT misconfig exit on Intel) which results in domain crash.
