KVM: async_pf: avoid recursive flushing of work items

The ->queue list is owned by the VCPU, not by the work items, so we cannot just add list_del to the work item. Instead, use work->vcpu to note async page faults that have been resolved and will be processed through the done list. There is no need to flush those.
