As now specifying "KVM_DIRECT_ROOTS | KVM_INVALID_ROOTS" only zaps valid direct
roots + invalid direct roots, do we need to update the comment? e.g. to

	* Zap all direct roots, including invalid direct roots, as all direct
	* SPTEs must be dropped before returning to the caller.	For TDX, mirror
	* roots don't need handling in response to the mmu notifier (the caller).
