KVM: x86/mmu: Alloc TDP MMU roots while holding mmu_lock for read
Allocate TDP MMU roots while holding mmu_lock for read, and instead use tdp_mmu_pages_lock to guard against duplicate roots. This allows KVM to create new roots without forcing kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_invalidated_roots() to yield, e.g. allows vCPUs to load new roots after memslot deletion without forcing the zap thread to detect contention and yield (or complete if the kernel isn't preemptible). Note, creating a new TDP MMU root as an mmu_lock reader is safe for two reasons: (1) paths that must guarantee all roots/SPTEs are *visited* take mmu_lock for write and so are still mutually exclusive, e.g. mmu_notifier invalidations, and (2) paths that require all roots/SPTEs to *observe* some given state without holding mmu_lock for write must ensure freshness through some other means, e.g. toggling dirty logging must first wait for SRCU readers to recognize the memslot flags change before processing existing roots/SPTEs.
