kvm_get_dirty_log() is a helper function for kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log() which
is currently used by ia64 and ppc and the following is what it is doing:

   - sanity checks
   - bitmap scan to check if the slot is dirty
   - copy_to_user()

Considering the fact that x86 is not using this anymore and sanity checks must
be done before kvm_ia64_sync_dirty_log(), we can say that this is not working
for code sharing effectively. So we just remove this.

Not introduced by this patch, but shouldn't this use rcu_dereference()?
