KVM: x86/mmu: Formalize TDP MMU's (unintended?) deferred TLB flush logic

Explicitly ignore the result of zap_gfn_range() when putting the last
reference to a TDP MMU root, and add a pile of comments to formalize the
TDP MMU's behavior of deferring TLB flushes to alloc/reuse.  Note, this
only affects the !shared case, as zap_gfn_range() subtly never returns
true for "flush" as the flush is handled by tdp_mmu_zap_spte_atomic().

Putting the root without a flush is ok because even if there are stale
references to the root in the TLB, they are unreachable because KVM will
not run the guest with the same ASID without first flushing (where ASID
in this context refers to both SVM's explicit ASID and Intel's implicit
ASID that is constructed from VPID+PCID+EPT4A+etc...).
