When ptep_get_and_clear_full is called for a mm teardown, we will now
attempt to destroy the secure pages. This will be faster than export.

In case it was not a teardown, or if for some reason the destroy page
UVC failed, we try with an export page, like before.

That's the case because we zap ptes within a mm that's still existing, right? The mm will be deleted after we have unmapped the memory.
