mm/mmu_notifier: use MMU_NOTIFY_CLEAR in remove_device_exclusive_entry()
Let's limit the use of MMU_NOTIFY_EXCLUSIVE to the case where we convert a present PTE to device-exclusive. For the other case, we can simply use MMU_NOTIFY_CLEAR, because it really is clearing the device-exclusive entry first, to then install the present entry. Update the documentation of MMU_NOTIFY_EXCLUSIVE, to document the single use case more thoroughly. If ever required, we could add a separate MMU_NOTIFY_CLEAR_EXCLUSIVE; for now using MMU_NOTIFY_CLEAR seems to be sufficient.
