I suppose there's *no* need to pass direct?  Also, there's the trivial 
(but less interesting) justification that kvm_mmu_load does

         if (vcpu->arch.mmu->root_role.direct)
                 r = mmu_alloc_direct_roots(vcpu);
         else
                 r = mmu_alloc_shadow_roots(vcpu);

and those are the only callers of mmu_alloc_root.
