kvm_fixup_and_inject_pf_error() was introduced to fixup the error code(
e.g., to add RSVD flag) and inject the #PF to the guest, when guest
MAXPHYADDR is smaller than the host one.

When it comes to nested, L0 is expected to intercept and fix up the #PF
and then inject to L2 directly if
- L2.MAXPHYADDR < L0.MAXPHYADDR and
- L1 has no intention to intercept L2's #PF (e.g., L2 and L1 have the
  same MAXPHYADDR value && L1 is using EPT for L2),
instead of constructing a #PF VM Exit to L1. Currently, with PFEC_MASK
and PFEC_MATCH both set to 0 in vmcs02, the interception and injection
may happen on all L2 #PFs.

However, failing to initialize 'fault' in kvm_fixup_and_inject_pf_error()
may cause the fault.async_page_fault being NOT zeroed, and later the #PF
being treated as a nested async page fault, and then being injected to L1.
Instead of zeroing 'fault' at the beginning of this function, we mannually
set the value of 'fault.async_page_fault', because false is the value we
really expect.

Fixes: 897861479c064 ("KVM: x86: Add helper functions for illegal GPA checking and page fault injection")

v2:
- Set 'fault.async_page_fault' mannually to false, instead of initializing
the whole structure based on Sean's suggestion.
- Commit message changes based on the code change.
