Re: [PATCH v7 09/14] AMD/IOMMU: free all-empty page tables

When a page table ends up with no present entries left, it can be
replaced by a non-present entry at the next higher level. The page table
itself can then be scheduled for freeing.

Note that while its output isn't used there yet,
pt_update_contig_markers() right away needs to be called in all places
where entries get updated, not just the one where entries get cleared.
