KVM: Use kvm_pfn_t for local PFN variable in hva_to_pfn_remapped()

Use kvm_pfn_t, a.k.a. u64, for the local 'pfn' variable when retrieving
a so called "remapped" hva/pfn pair.  In theory, the hva could resolve to
a pfn in high memory on a 32-bit kernel.

This bug was inadvertantly exposed by commit bd2fae8d ("KVM: do not
assume PTE is writable after follow_pfn"), which added an error PFN value
to the mix, causing gcc to comlain about overflowing the unsigned long.

  arch/x86/kvm/../../../virt/kvm/kvm_main.c: In function ‘hva_to_pfn_remapped’:
  include/linux/kvm_host.h:89:30: error: conversion from ‘long long unsigned int’
                                  to ‘long unsigned int’ changes value from
                                  ‘9218868437227405314’ to ‘2’ [-Werror=overflow]
