x86/mm: refine epte_present test

The current test for a present ept entry checks for a permission bit
to be set.

While this is valid in contexts in which we want to know whether an entry
will fault, it is not correct when it comes to testing whether an entry is
valid. Specifically, in the ept_change_entry_type_page function which is
used to set entries to the log dirty type.

In combination with a p2m access type like n or n2rwx, log dirty will not be
set for ept entries for which it should.
