Simply drop paged-pages in guest_remove_page(), and notify xenpaging to
drop its reference to the gfn. If the ring is full, the page will
remain in paged-out state in xenpaging. This is not an issue, it just
means this gfn will not be nominated again.

Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olaf@xxxxxxxxx>

---
v3:
 send one-way notification to pager to release page
 use new mem_event_check_ring() feature to not pause vcpu when ring is full
v2:
 resume dropped page to unpause vcpus
