Kai Huang 7edc3a6803 KVM, x86/mmu: Fix the comment around kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_leafs()
Now kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_leafs() only zaps leaf SPTEs but not any non-root
pages within that GFN range anymore, so the comment around it isn't
right.

Fix it by shifting the comment from tdp_mmu_zap_leafs() instead of
duplicating it, as tdp_mmu_zap_leafs() is static and is only called by
kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_leafs().

Opportunistically tweak the blurb about SPTEs being cleared to (a) say
"zapped" instead of "cleared" because "cleared" will be wrong if/when
KVM allows a non-zero value for non-present SPTE (i.e. for Intel TDX),
and (b) to clarify that a flush is needed if and only if a SPTE has been
zapped since MMU lock was last acquired.

Fixes: f47e5bbbc9 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Zap only TDP MMU leafs in zap range and mmu_notifier unmap")

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 Restructured Text 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.
