kvm-arm: Unmap shadow pagetables properly

commit 293f293 upstream.

On arm/arm64, we depend on the kvm_unmap_hva* callbacks (via
mmu_notifiers::invalidate_*) to unmap the stage2 pagetables when
the userspace buffer gets unmapped. However, when the Hypervisor
process exits without explicit unmap of the guest buffers, the only
notifier we get is kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all() (via mmu_notifier::release
) which does nothing on arm. Later this causes us to access pages that
were already released [via exit_mmap() -> unmap_vmas()] when we actually
get to unmap the stage2 pagetable [via kvm_arch_destroy_vm() ->
kvm_free_stage2_pgd()]. This triggers crashes with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC,
which unmaps any free'd pages from the linear map.

This patch fixes the issue by moving the kvm_free_stage2_pgd() to
kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all().
