KVM: Move memslot deletion to helper function
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().
