KVM: MMU: Fix mmu_shrink() so that it can free mmu pages as intended

Although the possible race described in

  commit 85b7059169e128c57a3a8a3e588fb89cb2031da1
  KVM: MMU: fix shrinking page from the empty mmu

was correct, the real cause of that issue was a more trivial bug of
mmu_shrink() introduced by

  commit 1952639665e92481c34c34c3e2a71bf3e66ba362
  KVM: MMU: do not iterate over all VMs in mmu_shrink()

Here is the bug:

	if (kvm->arch.n_used_mmu_pages > 0) {
		if (!nr_to_scan--)
			break;
		continue;
	}

We skip VMs whose n_used_mmu_pages is not zero and try to shrink others:
in other words we try to shrink empty ones by mistake.

This patch reverses the logic so that mmu_shrink() can free pages from
the first VM whose n_used_mmu_pages is not zero.  Note that we also add
comments explaining the role of nr_to_scan which is not practically
important now, hoping this will be improved in the future.
