When cr0.wp=0, we may shadow a gpte having u/s=1 and r/w=0 with an spte
having u/s=0 and r/w=1. This allows excessive access if the guest sets
cr0.wp=1 and accesses through this spte.
Fix by making cr0.wp part of the base role; we'll have different sptes for
the two cases and the problem disappears.
