x86/paravirt: Merge activate_mm() and dup_mmap() callbacks

Browse source 
The two paravirt callbacks .mmu.activate_mm() and .mmu.dup_mmap() are
sharing the same implementations in all cases: for Xen PV guests they
are pinning the PGD of the new mm_struct, and for all other cases they
are a NOP.

In the end, both callbacks are meant to register an address space with
the underlying hypervisor, so there needs to be only a single callback
for that purpose.

So merge them to a common callback .mmu.enter_mmap() (in contrast to the
corresponding already existing .mmu.exit_mmap()).

As the first parameter of the old callbacks isn't used, drop it from the
replacement one.

  [ bp: Remove last occurrence of paravirt_activate_mm() in
    asm/mmu_context.h ]
