Now kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_leafs() only zaps leaf SPTEs but not any non-root
pages within that GFN range anymore, so the comment around it isn't
right.

Fix it by shifting the comment from tdp_mmu_zap_leafs() instead of
duplicating it, as tdp_mmu_zap_leafs() is static and is only called by
kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_leafs().

Opportunistically tweak the blurb about SPTEs being cleared to (a) say
"zapped" instead of "cleared" because "cleared" will be wrong if/when
KVM allows a non-zero value for non-present SPTE (i.e. for Intel TDX),
and (b) to clarify that a flush is needed if and only if a SPTE has been
zapped since MMU lock was last acquired.

s/leafs/leaf (my fault, sorry)

With that tweak,

I should have checked error too :)

I have sent out v3 with above fixed.  Thanks.
