Subject: arm/arm64: KVM: Take mmap_sem in stage2_unmap_vm

From: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com>

commit 90f6e150e44a0dc3883110eeb3ab35d1be42b6bb upstream.

We don't hold the mmap_sem while searching for the VMAs when
we try to unmap each memslot for a VM. Fix this properly to
avoid unexpected results.
