[PATCH v2 4/9] memory: Don't do topology update in memory finalize()

[Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>]

Topology update could be wrongly triggered in memory region finalize() if
there's bug somewhere else.  It'll be a very confusing stack when it
happens (e.g., sending KVM ioctl within the RCU thread, and we'll observe it
only until it fails!).

Instead of that, we use the push()/pop() helper to avoid memory transaction
commit, at the same time we use assertions to make sure there's no pending
updates or it's a nested transaction, so it could fail even earlier and in a
more explicit way.
