mmu->sync_page for direct paging is never called.

And both mmu->sync_page and mm->invlpg only make sense in shadowpaging.
Setting mmu->sync_page as NULL for direct paging makes it consistent
with mm->invlpg which is set NULL for the case.

I'd rather have a WARN_ON_ONCE in kvm_sync_page(), otherwise looks good.
