The reason for cpu_reload_memory_map()'s RCU operations is not
so much because the guest could make the critical section very
long, but that it could have a critical section within which
it made an arbitrary number of changes to the memory map and
thus accumulate an unbounded amount of memory data structures
awaiting reclamation. Clarify the comment to make this clearer.

The goal is to split the functions such that cpu-exec is CPU specific
content, while cpus-exec-common.c is generic code only. The function
interface to cpu-exec needs to be virtualised to prepare support for
multi-arch and moving these definitions out saves bloating the QOM
interface. So move these definitions out of cpu-exec to a new module,
cpu-exec-common.
