[PATCH v13 11/35] KVM: Drop .on_unlock() mmu_notifier hook

Drop the .on_unlock() mmu_notifer hook now that it's no longer used for
notifying arch code that memory has been reclaimed.  Adding .on_unlock()
and invoking it *after* dropping mmu_lock was a terrible idea, as doing so
resulted in .on_lock() and .on_unlock() having divergent and asymmetric
behavior, and set future developers up for failure, i.e. all but asked for
bugs where KVM relied on using .on_unlock() to try to run a callback while
holding mmu_lock.

Opportunistically add a lockdep assertion in kvm_mmu_invalidate_end() to
guard against future bugs of this nature.
