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.
