Now, kvm_mmu_zap_all is only called in the path of mmu_notifier->release, at that time, vcpu has stopped that means no new page will be create, we can use lock-break technique to avoid potential soft lockup (Note: at this time, the mmu-lock still has contention between ->release and other mmu-notify handlers.)
