Thread-topic: [Xen-devel][PATCH]Fix a shadow error with L*_DISALLOW_MASK for HVM 64bit guest

This patch fixes a shadow error. For 64bit guest, the [62:52] bits of PML4 4 levels page table entries is software available.

But the L*_DISALLOW_MASK forbids to generate this kind of shadow page table entries.
