KVM: MMU: Consolidate two guest pte reads in kvm_mmu_pte_write()

kvm_mmu_pte_write() reads guest ptes in two different occasions, both to
allow a 32-bit pae guest to update a pte with 4-byte writes.  Consolidate
these into a single read, which also allows us to consolidate another read
from an invlpg speculating a gpte into the shadow page table.
