Emilio G. Cota cc689485ee translate-all: exit from tb_phys_invalidate if qht_remove fails
Two or more threads might race while invalidating the same TB. We currently
do not check for this at all despite taking tb_lock, which means we would
wrongly invalidate the same TB more than once. This bug has actually been
hit by users: I recently saw a report on IRC, although I have yet to see
the corresponding test case.

Fix this by using qht_remove as the synchronization point; if it fails,
that means the TB has already been invalidated, and therefore there
is nothing left to do in tb_phys_invalidate.

Note that this solution works now that we still have tb_lock, and will
continue working once we remove tb_lock.
