    x86: perform mem_sharing teardown before paging teardown
    
    An assert failure has been observed in p2m_teardown when performing vm
    forking and then destroying the forked VM (p2m-basic.c:173). The assert
    checks whether the domain's shared pages counter is 0. According to the
    patch that originally added the assert (7bedbbb5c31) the p2m_teardown
    should only happen after mem_sharing already relinquished all shared pages.
    
    In this patch we flip the order in which relinquish ops are called to avoid
    tripping the assert. Conceptually sharing being torn down makes sense to
    happen before paging is torn down.
    
    Fixes: e7aa55c0aab3 ("x86/p2m: free the paging memory pool preemptively")
