The emulation_count field is set only conditionally right now. Convert
all field setting to an initializer, thus guaranteeing that field to be
set to 0 (default initialized) when GUEST_PAGING_LEVELS != 3.

While there also drop the "event" local variable, thus eliminating an
instance of the being phased out u32 type.

This is an improvement, but there's a related mess right next to it.

I think this would be a whole lot better with a couple of tweaks, if
you're willing to wait a little for me to try.
