Subject: [PATCH v4 1/5] vduse: Remove unnecessary spin lock protection

Now we use domain->iotlb_lock to protect two different
variables: domain->bounce_maps->bounce_page and
domain->iotlb. But for domain->bounce_maps->bounce_page,
we actually don't need any synchronization between
vduse_domain_get_bounce_page() and vduse_domain_free_bounce_pages()
since vduse_domain_get_bounce_page() will only be called in
page fault handler and vduse_domain_free_bounce_pages() will
be called during file release.

So let's remove the unnecessary spin lock protection in
vduse_domain_get_bounce_page(). Then the usage of
domain->iotlb_lock could be more clear: the lock will be
only used to protect the domain->iotlb.
