[PATCH] allow enabling/disabling NPT by reloading only the architecture module

If NPT is enabled after loading both KVM modules on AMD and it should be
disabled, both KVM modules must be reloaded. If only the architecture module is
reloaded the behavior is undefined. With this patch it is possible to disable
NPT only by reloading the kvm_amd module.
