Subject: [PATCH] kvm x86 mmu: simplify kvm_mmu_unlink_parents()


mmu_page_remove_parent_pte() does much maintenance works,
but kvm_mmu_unlink_parents() unlink all parents, so
such maintenance works are not need.

This patch simplifies the works of kvm_mmu_unlink_parents()
by unlinking parents without so many maintenance works.
