Definitely worth doing (I'll provide more info in the "Zap defunct roots" patch):
WARN_ON_ONCE(!root->role.invalid || root->tdp_mmu_async_data);
The assertion on role.invalid is a little overkill, but might help document when
and how this is used.

This helper is unused. It _could_ be used here, but I think it belongs in the
next patch. Critically, until zapping defunct roots creates the invariant that
invalid roots are _always_ zapped via worker, kvm_tdp_mmu_invalidate_all_roots()
must not assume that an invalid root is queued for zapping. I.e. doing this
before the "Zap defunct roots" would be wrong:
list_for_each_entry(root, &kvm->arch.tdp_mmu_roots, link) {
if (kvm_tdp_root_mark_invalid(root))
continue;
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(!kvm_tdp_mmu_get_root(root)));
continue;
tdp_mmu_schedule_zap_root(kvm, root);
}
