KVM: x86: Drop superfluous check on direct MMU vs. WRITE_PF_TO_SP flag
Remove reexecute_instruction()'s final check on the MMU being direct, as EMULTYPE_WRITE_PF_TO_SP is only ever set if the MMU is indirect, i.e. is a shadow MMU. Prior to commit 93c05d3ef252 ("KVM: x86: improve reexecute_instruction"), the flag simply didn't exist (and KVM actually returned "true" unconditionally for both types of MMUs). I.e. the explicit check for a direct MMU is simply leftover artifact from old code.
