KVM: x86/mmu: Preserve nested TDP shadow page tables if they are used as roots

kvm_mmu_zap_oldest_mmu_pages() excludes a shadow page whose root_count
is non-zero from top-level reclaim, because such a page cannot be
freed. The path in mmu_page_zap_pte() that recursively zaps a parentless
nested TDP child has no such check. As a result, a shadow page can
be zapped even if the page itself can't be freed; as the comment in
kvm_mmu_zap_oldest_mmu_pages() notes, zapping it will just force vCPUs
to rebuild the page.

As in top-level reclaim, do not recursively prepare zapping of a
nested TDP child whose root_count is non-zero.

Fixes: 2de4085ccc ("KVM: x86/MMU: Recursively zap nested TDP SPs when zapping last/only parent")
