kernfs: invoke kernfs_unmap_bin_file() directly from kernfs_deactivate()
kernfs_unmap_bin_file() is supposed to unmap all memory mappings of the target file before kernfs_remove() finishes; however, it currently is being called from kernfs_addrm_finish() and has the same race problem as the original implementation of deactivation when there are multiple removers - only the remover which snatches the node to its addrm_cxt->removed list is guaranteed to wait for its completion before returning. It can be easily fixed by moving kernfs_unmap_bin_file() invocation from kernfs_addrm_finish() to kernfs_deactivated(). The function may be called multiple times but that shouldn't do any harm.
