Add a new page-track hook, track_remove_region(), that is called when a memslot DELETE operation is about to be committed. The "remove" hook will be used by KVMGT and will effectively replace the existing track_flush_slot() altogether now that KVM itself doesn't rely on the "flush" hook either. The "flush" hook is flawed as it's invoked before the memslot operation is guaranteed to succeed, i.e. KVM might ultimately keep the existing memslot without notifying external page track users, a.k.a. KVMGT. In practice, this can't currently happen on x86, but there are no guarantees that won't change in the future, not to mention that "flush" does a very poor job of describing what is happening. Pass in the gfn+nr_pages instead of the slot itself so external users, i.e. KVMGT, don't need to exposed to KVM internals (memslots). This will help set the stage for additional cleanups to the page-track APIs. Opportunistically align the existing srcu_read_lock_held() usage so that the new case doesn't stand out like a sore thumb (and not aligning the new code makes bots unhappy).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
