x86, shadow: Fix OOS on domain crash.
I couldn't reproduce the Nevada crash on my testbox, but this should fix the first Xen crash that was seen in the Nevada HVM (bugzilla #1322). What I think most probably happened there is that the set_l2e call in shadow_get_and_create_l1e() has tried to resync a page, but somehow we weren't unable to remove the shadow (the real bug we should actually look after). sh_resync() then removes the page from the OOS hash and later in the page fault path we find the gw.l1mfn to be still OOS, so we try to update the snapshot and the bug happens. This should fix this and other unlikely (like sh_unsync() failing to remove for hash collision the current gw.l1mfn) cases. Signed-off-by: Gianluca Guida <gianluca.guida@eu.citrix.com>
