Subject: [PATCH 03/36] KVM: s390: Fix refcounting and allow module unload

From: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@...ibm.com>

Currently it is impossible to unload the kvm module on s390.
This patch fixes kvm_arch_destroy_vm to release all cpus.
This make it possible to unload the module.

In addition we stop messing with the module refcount in arch code.
