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, commit
7a458f0e1ba1 ("KVM: x86/mmu: remove extended bits from mmu_role, rename
field") simply missed that "invalid" could be set.

Fixes: 576a15de8d29 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Free TDP MMU roots while holding mmy_lock for read")

Applied super quickly to kvm-x86 fixes, so that it gets time in -next before I
pass it on to Paolo.  This is the last commit in "fixes", so it's easy to drop
and/or modify if there's an issue.
