Subject: [PATCH 03/15] mm/hmm: HMM should have a callback before MM is destroyed v3

From: Ralph Campbell <rcampbell@...dia.com>

The hmm_mirror_register() function registers a callback for when
the CPU pagetable is modified. Normally, the device driver will
call hmm_mirror_unregister() when the process using the device is
finished. However, if the process exits uncleanly, the struct_mm
can be destroyed with no warning to the device driver.

Changed since v1:
  - dropped VM_BUG_ON()
  - cc stable
Changed since v2:
  - drop stable
  - Split list removale and call to driver release callback. This
    allow the release callback to wait on any pending fault handler
    without deadlock.
