[PATCH 06/13] KVM: monolithic: x86: remove __exit section prefix from machine_unsetup

Adjusts the section prefixes of some KVM x86 code function because
with the monolithic KVM model the section checker can now do a more
accurate static analysis at build time and it found a potentially
kernel crashing bug. This also allows to build without
CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH_WARN_ONLY=n.

The __exit removed from machine_unsetup is because
kvm_arch_hardware_unsetup() is called by kvm_init() which is in the
__init section. It's not allowed to call a function located in the
__exit section and dropped during the kernel link from the __init
section or the kernel will crash if that call is made.
