KVM: x86/mmu: look for a cached PGD when going from 32-bit to 64-bit

Right now, PGD caching avoids placing a PAE root in the cache by using the
old value of mmu->root_level and mmu->shadow_root_level; it does not look
for a cached PGD if the old root is a PAE one, and then frees it using
kvm_mmu_free_roots.

Change the logic instead to free the uncacheable root early.
This way, __kvm_new_mmu_pgd is able to look up the cache when going from
32-bit to 64-bit (if there is a hit, the invalid root becomes the least
recently used).  An example of this is nested virtualization with shadow
paging, when a 64-bit L1 runs a 32-bit L2.

As a side effect (which is actually the reason why this patch was
written), PGD caching does not use the old value of mmu->root_level
and mmu->shadow_root_level anymore.
