The PVH entry is available for 32-bit KVM guests, and 32-bit KVM guests
do not depend on CONFIG_X86_PAE. However, mk_early_pgtbl_32() builds
different pagetables depending on whether CONFIG_X86_PAE is set.
Therefore, enabling PAE mode for 32-bit KVM guests without
CONFIG_X86_PAE being set would result in a boot failure during CR3
loading.
