KVM: x86/mmu: Ensure NX huge page recovery thread is alive before waking

When waking a VM's NX huge page recovery thread, ensure the thread is
actually alive before trying to wake it.  Now that the thread is spawned
on-demand during KVM_RUN, a VM without a recovery thread is reachable via
the related module params.
