KVM: x86/mmu: Zap only obsolete roots if a root shadow page is zapped
Zap only obsolete roots when responding to zapping a single root shadow
page. Because KVM keeps root_count elevated when stuffing a previous
root into its PGD cache, shadowing a 64-bit guest means that zapping any
root causes all vCPUs to reload all roots, even if their current root is
not affected by the zap.
For many kernels, zapping a single root is a frequent operation, e.g. in
Linux it happens whenever an mm is dropped, e.g. process exits, etc...
