While it is correct that in shim-exclusive mode log-dirty handling is
all unreachable code, the present conditional still isn't correct: In a
HVM=n and SHADOW_PAGING=n configuration log-dirty code also is all
unreachable (and hence violating Misra rule 2.1).

As we're aiming at moving away from special casing PV_SHIM_EXCLUSIVE=y,
don't retain that part of the conditional.

Because of hypercall-defs.c we need to carry out the dependency by
introducing a new auxiliary PAGING control.

Since compiling out mm/paging.c altogether would entail further changes,
merely conditionalize the one function in there (paging_enable()) which
would otherwise remain unreachable (Misra rule 2.1 again) when PAGING=n.

Fixes: 23d4e0d17b76 ("x86/shim: fix build with PV_SHIM_EXCLUSIVE and 
SHADOW_PAGING")

Of course PAGING is at risk of being confused with MEM_PAGING. It not
having a prompt, I hope that's tolerable, as I can't really think of a
better name.

Other PG_log_dirty pre-processor conditionals then likely also want
replacing. mm/paging.c and mm/p2m-basic.c could also be compiled out
altogether when PAGING=n, at the expense of introducing a few more
stubs.

FTAOD, the Fixes: tag being referenced does not mean this patch corrects
the far more recently introduced build issue with the combination of the
two features. That's still work that I expect Penny to carry out (with
there still being the option of reverting the final part of the earlier
series).
