kvm: x86: mmu: Drop the need_remote_flush() function

This is only used by kvm_mmu_pte_write(), which no longer actually
creates the new SPTE and instead just clears the old SPTE. So we
just need to check if the old SPTE was shadow-present instead of
calling need_remote_flush(). Hence we can drop this function. It was
incomplete anyway as it didn't take access-tracking into account.

This patch should not result in any functional change.
