Worth adding a comment about why this is used instead of
tdp_mmu_zap_spte_atomic.

Repeated phrase.

Note this will conflict with the series David sent out Friday.
Hopefully some of the cleanups early in that series get merged, in
which case this line will not be needed.

tdp_mmu_max_gfn_host and this refactor, could be added in a separate
commit if desired.
