Free all roots when emulating INVVPID for L1 and EPT is disabled, as
outstanding changes to the page tables managed by L1 need to be
recognized. Because L1 and L2 share an MMU when EPT is disabled, and
because VPID is not tracked by the MMU role, all roots in the current
MMU (root_mmu) need to be freed, otherwise a future nested VM-Enter or
VM-Exit could do a fast CR3 switch (without a flush/sync) and consume
stale SPTEs.

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.
