Patch 1 fixes a leak of root-1 shadow pages, patch 2 is a minor
optimization to the zap all flow that avoids re-reading and re-checking
the root-1 SPTEs after they've been zapped by "zap all" flows.

I'm still somewhat on the fence for patch 2, feel free to drop it.

v2:
  - Replaced magic number silliness with Paolo's much more clever suggestion.
  - Elaborated on the benefits of the optimization.
  - Add Ben's somewhat reluctant review for the optimization.

v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210812050717.3176478-1-seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx

   KVM: x86/mmu: Don't leak non-leaf SPTEs when zapping all SPTEs
   KVM: x86/mmu: Don't step down in the TDP iterator when zapping all
     SPTEs

Queued, thanks.
