Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 1/2] KVM: x86/mmu: Ensure TDP MMU roots are freed after yield

I tested v2 with Maciej's test
(https://gist.github.com/maciejsszmigiero/890218151c242d99f63ea0825334c6c0,
near the bottom of the page) on an Intel Skylake Machine and can
confirm that v1 failed the test but v2 passes. The problem with v1 was
that roots were being removed from the list before list_next_entry was
called, resulting in a bad value.
