KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Avoid touching arch.mmu_ready in XIVE release functions

Currently, kvmppc_xive_release() and kvmppc_xive_native_release() clear
kvm->arch.mmu_ready and call kick_all_cpus_sync() as a way of ensuring
that no vcpus are executing in the guest.  However, future patches will
change the mutex associated with kvm->arch.mmu_ready to a new mutex that
nests inside the vcpu mutexes, making it difficult to continue to use
this method.

In fact, taking the vcpu mutex for a vcpu excludes execution of that
vcpu, and we already take the vcpu mutex around the call to
kvmppc_xive_[native_]cleanup_vcpu().  Once the cleanup function is
done and we release the vcpu mutex, the vcpu can execute once again,
but because we have cleared vcpu->arch.xive_vcpu, vcpu->arch.irq_type,
vcpu->arch.xive_esc_vaddr and vcpu->arch.xive_esc_raddr, that vcpu will
not be going into XIVE code any more.  Thus, once we have cleaned up
all of the vcpus, we are safe to clean up the rest of the XIVE state,
and we don't need to use kvm->arch.mmu_ready to hold off vcpu execution.
