What is vm_unmap_aliases() for?  I see this is probably copied from
rpaphp_core.c, where it was added by b4a26be9f6f8 ("powerpc/pseries: Flush
lazy kernel mappings after unplug operations").

But I don't know whether:

  - this is something specific to powerpc,
  - the lack of vm_unmap_aliases() in other hotplug paths is a bug,
  - the fact that we only do this on powerpc is covering up a
    powerpc bug somewhere
