Very tidy cleanup!

For a second I thought that this should be 5 since a page is needed to
hold the 4 PAE roots, but that page is allocated at vCPU creation and
reused, so no need to check for it here.

There's so much going on in mmu_alloc_root that removing this check
makes me nervous, but I think it should be safe.
I checked though the function because I was worried it might yield
somewhere in there, which could result in the page cache being emptied
and the allocation failing, but I don't think mmu_alloc_root this
function will yield.
