x86/EPT: correct special page checking in epte_get_entry_emt()

mfn_valid() granularity is (currently) 256Mb. Therefore the start of a
1Gb page passing the test doesn't necessarily mean all parts of such a
range would also pass. Yet using the result of mfn_to_page() on an MFN
which doesn't pass mfn_valid() checking is liable to result in a crash
(the invocation of mfn_to_page() alone is presumably "just" UB in such a
case).
