Protect the contents of the TDP MMU roots list with RCU in preparation
for a future patch which will allow the iterator macro to be used under
the MMU lock in read mode.

Please update the comment above tdp_mmu_pages_lock in arch/x86/include/asm/kvm_host.h as well.

 /* Only safe under the MMU lock in write mode, without yielding. */
 #define for_each_tdp_mmu_root(_kvm, _root)				\
-	list_for_each_entry(_root, &_kvm->arch.tdp_mmu_roots, link)
+	list_for_each_entry_rcu(_root, &_kvm->arch.tdp_mmu_roots, link,	\
+				lockdep_is_held_write(&kvm->mmu_lock))

This should also add "... || lockdep_is_help(&kvm->arch.tdp_mmu_pages_lock)", if only for documentation purposes.
