KVM allocates a bare page for "special" roots, e.g. when using PAE paging or shadowing 2/3/4-level page tables with 4/5-level, and so root_hpa will be valid but won't be backed by a shadow page. It's all too easy to blindly call mmu_free_root_page() on root_hpa, be nice and WARN instead of crashing KVM and possibly the kernel.
