Subject: mm/hmm: HMM should have a callback before MM is destroyed v2

The hmm_mirror_register() function registers a callback for when the CPU
pagetable is modified.  Normally, the device driver will call
hmm_mirror_unregister() when the process using the device is finished. 
However, if the process exits uncleanly, the struct_mm can be destroyed
with no warning to the device driver.
