KVM: Simplify kvm->tlbs_dirty handling
When this was introduced, kvm_flush_remote_tlbs() could be called without holding mmu_lock. It is now acknowledged that the function must be called before releasing mmu_lock, and all callers have already been changed to do so. There is no need to use smp_mb() and cmpxchg() any more.
