hmm, I think we might have to be very careful here. If we only zap
leafs, then there could be side effects. For instance, the code in
disallowed_hugepage_adjust() may not work as intended. If you check
the following condition in arch/x86/kvm/mmu/mmu.c:2918

if (cur_level > PG_LEVEL_4K &&
    cur_level == fault->goal_level &&
    is_shadow_present_pte(spte) &&
    !is_large_pte(spte)) {

If we previously use 4K mappings in this range due to various reasons
(dirty logging etc), then afterwards, we zap the range. Then the guest
touches a 4K and now we should map the range with whatever the maximum
level we can for the guest.

However, if we just zap only the leafs, then when the code comes to
the above location, is_shadow_present_pte(spte) will return true,
since the spte is a non-leaf (say a regular PMD entry). The whole if
statement will be true, then we never allow remapping guest memory
with huge pages.
