[PATCH v5 12/19] KVM: Move memslot deletion to helper function

Sean Christopherson

Move memslot deletion into its own routine so that the success path for
other memslot updates does not need to use kvm_free_memslot(), i.e. can
explicitly destroy the dirty bitmap when necessary. This paves the way
for dropping @dont from kvm_free_memslot(), i.e. all callers now pass
NULL for @dont.

Add a comment above the code to make a copy of the existing memslot
prior to deletion, it is not at all obvious that the pointer will become
stale during sorting and/or installation of new memslots.

Note, kvm_arch_commit_memory_region() allows an architecture to free
resources when moving a memslot or changing its flags, e.g. x86 frees
its arch specific memslot metadata during commit_memory_region().
