Many TDP MMU functions which need to perform some action on all TDP MMU
roots hold a reference on that root so that they can safely drop the MMU
lock in order to yield to other threads. However, when releasing the
reference on the root, there is a bug: the root will not be freed even
if its reference count (root_count) is reduced to 0.
To simplify acquiring and releasing references on TDP MMU root pages, and
to ensure that these roots are properly freed, move the get/put operations
into another TDP MMU root iterator macro.
Moving the get/put operations into an iterator macro also helps
simplify control flow when a root does need to be freed. Note that using
the list_for_each_entry_safe macro would not have been appropriate in
this situation because it could keep a pointer to the next root across
an MMU lock release + reacquire, during which time that root could be
freed.
