KVM: x86/mmu: Add dedicated helper to zap TDP MMU root shadow page
Add a dedicated helper for zapping a TDP MMU root, and use it in the three flows that do "zap_all" and intentionally do not do a TLB flush if SPTEs are zapped (zapping an entire root is safe if and only if it cannot be in use by any vCPU). Because a TLB flush is never required, unconditionally pass "false" to tdp_mmu_iter_cond_resched() when potentially yielding. Opportunistically document why KVM must not yield when zapping roots that are being zapped by kvm_tdp_mmu_put_root(), i.e. roots whose refcount has reached zero, and further harden the flow to detect improper KVM behavior with respect to roots that are supposed to be unreachable. In addition to hardening zapping of roots, isolating zapping of roots will allow future simplification of zap_gfn_range() by having it zap only leaf SPTEs, and by removing its tricky "zap all" heuristic. By having all paths that truly need to free _all_ SPs flow through the dedicated root zapper, the generic zapper can be freed of those concerns.
