Set kvm_mmu_page_role.invalid to mark the various MMU root_roles invalid during CPUID update in order to force a refresh, instead of zeroing out the entire role. This fixes a bug where kvm_mmu_free_roots() incorrectly thinks a root is indirect, i.e. not a TDP MMU, due to "direct" being zeroed, which in turn causes KVM to take mmu_lock for write instead of read. Note, paving over the entire role was largely unintentional, commit7a458f0e1b("KVM: x86/mmu: remove extended bits from mmu_role, rename field") simply missed that "invalid" could be set.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
