I think this patch will trigger a lockdep assert in

  kvm_tdp_mmu_age_gfn_range
    kvm_tdp_mmu_handle_gfn
      for_each_tdp_mmu_root
        __for_each_tdp_mmu_root
          kvm_lockdep_assert_mmu_lock_held

... because it walks tdp_mmu_roots without holding mmu_lock.

Yu's patch[1] added a lockless walk to the TDP MMU. We'd need something
similar here and also update the comment above tdp_mmu_roots describing
how tdp_mmu_roots can be read locklessly.
