It looks like in the combination of aff8bf94ce65 ('x86/shadow: only
4-level guest code needs building when !HVM') and 0b841314dace
('x86/shadow: sh_{make,destroy}_monitor_table() are "even more" HVM-
only') I didn't go quite far enough: SH_type_monitor_table is also
effectively unused when !HVM.

The assertion early in sh_destroy_shadow() can have the type dropped
altogether: it shouldn't make it here in the first place. Pages of
this type are freed directly from sh_destroy_monitor_table() only.
