[PATCH] xen/gntdev: Avoid blocking in unmap_grant_pages()

[Demi Marie Obenour]

unmap_grant_pages() currently waits for the pages to no longer be used.
In https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/7481, this lead to a
deadlock against i915: i915 was waiting for gntdev's MMU notifier to
finish, while gntdev was waiting for i915 to free its pages.  I also
believe this is responsible for various deadlocks I have experienced in
the past.

Avoid these problems by making unmap_grant_pages async.  This requires
making it return void, as any errors will not be available when the
function returns.  Fortunately, the only use of the return value is a
WARN_ON().  Replace this with WARN_ON()s where errors are detected.
