KVM: nSVM: Drop the non-architectural consistency check for NP_ENABLE

KVM currenty fails a nested VMRUN and injects VMEXIT_INVALID (aka
SVM_EXIT_ERR) if L1 sets NP_ENABLE and the host does not support NPTs.
On first glance, it seems like the check should actually be for
guest_cpu_cap_has(X86_FEATURE_NPT) instead, as it is possible for the
host to support NPTs but the guest CPUID to not advertise it.

However, the consistency check is not architectural to begin with. The
APM does not mention VMEXIT_INVALID if NP_ENABLE is set on a processor
that does not have X86_FEATURE_NPT. Hence, NP_ENABLE should be ignored
if X86_FEATURE_NPT is not available for L1, so sanitize it when copying
from the VMCB12 to KVM's cache.

Apart from the consistency check, NP_ENABLE in VMCB12 is currently
ignored because the bit is actually copied from VMCB01 to VMCB02, not
from VMCB12.
