3.13.11-ckt22 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Xiao Guangrong <guangrong.xiao at linux.intel.com>

commit 7cbeed9bce7580479bb97457dad220cb3594b875 upstream.

Current permission check assumes that RSVD bit in PFEC is always zero,
however, it is not true since MMIO #PF will use it to quickly identify
MMIO access

Fix it by clearing the bit if walking guest page table is needed
