[PATCH 6/6] KVM: Drop hack that "manually" informs lockdep of kvm->lock vs. vcpu->mutex

[Sean Christopherson]

Now that KVM takes vcpu->mutex inside kvm->lock when creating a vCPU, drop
the hack to manually inform lockdep of the kvm->lock => vcpu->mutex
ordering.

This effectively reverts commit 42a90008f890 ("KVM: Ensure lockdep knows
about kvm->lock vs. vcpu->mutex ordering rule").
