As long as this is after the necessary isolation and is called from
arch_remove_memory(), I think we should be fine

If slot == -1, it means someone else removed the HPTE entry? Are we racing?
I suspect we should never hit this situation during hotunplug, specifically
since this is bolted.

Under DEBUG or otherwise, I would add more checks like

1. was hpte_v & HPTE_V_VALID and BOLTED set? If not, we've already invalidated
that hpte and we can skip the tlbie. Since this was bolted you might be right
that it is always valid and bolted

The API also does not clear linear_map_hash_slots[] under DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
