[PATCH 1/5] KVM: arm64: vgic: Simplify kvm_vgic_destroy()

When destroying a vgic, we have rather cumbersome rules about
when slots_lock and config_lock are held, resulting in fun
buglets.

The first port of call is to simplify kvm_vgic_map_resources()
so that there is only one call to kvm_vgic_destroy() instead of
two, with the second only holding half of the locks.

For that, we kill the non-locking primitive and move the call
outside of the locking altogether. This doesn't change anything
(we re-acquire the locks and teardown the whole vgic), and
simplifies the code significantly.
