ksm: distribute remove_mm_from_lists

Do some housekeeping in ksm.c, to help make the next patch easier
to understand: remove the function remove_mm_from_lists, distributing
its code to its callsites scan_get_next_rmap_item and __ksm_exit.

That turns out to be a win in scan_get_next_rmap_item: move its
remove_trailing_rmap_items and cursor advancement up, and it becomes
simpler than before.  __ksm_exit becomes messier, but will change
again; and moving its remove_trailing_rmap_items up lets us strengthen
the unstable tree item's age condition in remove_rmap_item_from_tree.
