Subject: [PATCH 5.10 114/146] KVM: X86: Fix x86_emulator slab cache leak

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@...cent.com>

commit dfdc0a714d241bfbf951886c373cd1ae463fcc25 upstream.

Commit c9b8b07cded58 (KVM: x86: Dynamically allocate per-vCPU emulation context)
tries to allocate per-vCPU emulation context dynamically, however, the
x86_emulator slab cache is still exiting after the kvm module is unload
as below after destroying the VM and unloading the kvm module.

grep x86_emulator /proc/slabinfo
x86_emulator          36     36   2672   12    8 : tunables    0    0    0 : slabdata      3      3      0

This patch fixes this slab cache leak by destroying the x86_emulator slab cache
when the kvm module is unloaded.
