lazy tlb: fix hotplug exit race with MMU_LAZY_TLB_SHOOTDOWN

CPU unplug first calls __cpu_disable(), and that's where powerpc calls
cleanup_cpu_mmu_context(), which clears this CPU from mm_cpumask() of all
mms in the system.

However this CPU may still be using a lazy tlb mm, and its mm_cpumask bit
will be cleared from it.  The CPU does not switch away from the lazy tlb
mm until arch_cpu_idle_dead() calls idle_task_exit().

If that user mm exits in this window, it will not be subject to the lazy
tlb mm shootdown and may be freed while in use as a lazy mm by the CPU
that is being unplugged.

cleanup_cpu_mmu_context() could be moved later, but it looks better to
move the lazy tlb mm switching earlier.  The problem with doing the lazy
mm switching in idle_task_exit() is explained in commit bf2c59fce4074
("sched/core: Fix illegal RCU from offline CPUs"), which added a wart to
switch away from the mm but leave it set in active_mm to be cleaned up
later.

So instead, switch away from the lazy tlb mm at sched_cpu_wait_empty(),
which is the last hotplug state before teardown
(CPUHP_AP_SCHED_WAIT_EMPTY).  This CPU will never switch to a user thread
from this point, so it has no chance to pick up a new lazy tlb mm.  This
removes the lazy tlb mm handling wart in CPU unplug.

With this, idle_task_exit() is not needed anymore and can be cleaned up. 
This leaves the prototype alone, to be cleaned after this change.

herton: took the suggestions from https://lore.kernel.org/all/87jzvyprsw.ffs@tglx/
and made adjustments on the initial patch proposed by Nicholas.
