[PATCH 2/3] kvm: x86/mmu: Ensure TDP MMU roots are freed after yield

From: Ben Gardon
Date: Tue Jan 05 2021 - 18:32:36 EST


Many TDP MMU functions which need to perform some action on all TDP MMU
roots hold a reference on that root so that they can safely drop the MMU
lock in order to yield to other threads. However, when releasing the
reference on the root, there is a bug: the root will not be freed even
if its reference count (root_count) is reduced to 0. Ensure that these
roots are properly freed.
