KVM_MMU_IDLE_INTEL might be a more user friendly name, I doubt that
all Kconfig users would immediately associate EPT with Intel's two
dimensional paging.  And it meshes nicely with KVM_MMU_IDLE as a base
name if we ever want to move common functionality to its own module,
as well as all of the other KVM_MMU_* nomenclature.
