Drop lookup_address_in_mm() now that KVM is providing it's own variant
of lookup_address_in_pgd() that is safe for use with user addresses, e.g.
guards against page tables being torn down. A variant that provides a
non-init mm is inherently dangerous and flawed, as the only reason to use
an mm other than init_mm is to walk a userspace mapping, and
lookup_address_in_pgd() does not play nice with userspace mappings, e.g.
doesn't disable IRQs to block TLB shootdowns and doesn't use READ_ONCE()
to ensure an upper level entry isn't converted to a huge page between
checking the PAGE_SIZE bit and grabbing the address of the next level
down.
