KVM: Get writable mapping for __kvm_vcpu_map() only when necessary


When creating a memory map for read, don't request a writable pfn from the
primary MMU.  While creating read-only mappings can be theoretically slower,
as they don't play nice with fast GUP due to the need to break CoW before
mapping the underlying PFN, practically speaking, creating a mapping isn't
a super hot path, and getting a writable mapping for reading is weird and
confusing.
