mm: remove __invalidate_mapping_pages variant
Remove __invalidate_mapping_pages atomic variant now that its sole caller can sleep (fixed in eccb95cee4f0d56faa46ef22fb94dd4a3578d3eb ("vfs: fix lock inversion in drop_pagecache_sb()")). This fixes softlockups that can occur while in the drop_caches path.
