KVM, x86/mmu: Fix the comment around kvm_tdp_mmu_zap_leafs()
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.
