Oof, there's a mess waiting to happen here.  for_each_shadow_entry_using_root()
and kvm_sync_spte() do indeed operate on vcpu->arch.mmu, but the only reason that
doesn't cause explosions is because handle_invept() frees roots instead of doing
a manual invalidation.  At a glance, I don't see any major roadblocks to switching
INVEPT emulation over to use kvm_mmu_invalidate_addr().

I'm leaning towards asserting on @mmu instead of deleting it.
