ceb04d3c11 nova: avoid race in pager_object destruction
Don't skip the cleanup call if a pager object is marked as blocked.

It happens that the pager_object is in destruction but it is also used
concurrently by the pager thread. The pager thread handling code may set the
pager object to blocked but still uses the pointer to the pager object. Avoid
locking at the state of the pager object and make the cleanup call everytime.

Error output looks like this, where the pf_ip is within

  void Pager_object::_page_fault_handler(addr_t pager_obj)

method and the pf_addr is the stale pointer to the already released pager_object.

no RM attachment (READ pf_addr=xxx pf_ip=xxx from 00 <NULL>)
static void Genode::Pager_object::_page_fault_handler(Genode::addr_t): page fault, thread '<NULL>', cpu x, ip=xxx, fault address=xxx

PAGE-FAULT IN CORE (READ pf_addr=b10e0090 pf_ip=132dbc from 00 <NULL>)

c7195c8652 nova: sanitize cpu during pager assignment
Additionally print warnings about unavailable CPUs if they are tried to be
used during pager object setup.

Discovered during Turmvilla scenario #1552 and issue #1733.

458b4d6fc4 base: redesign object pool using lambda interface
Instead of returning pointers to locked objects via a lookup function,
the new object pool implementation restricts object access to
functors resp. lambda expressions that are applied to the objects
within the pool itself.

Fix #884
Fix #1658

eafe5e81e3 core: unify and simplify paging code (Fix #1641)
For most platforms except of NOVA a distinction between pager entrypoint
and pager activation is not needed, and only exists due to historical
reasons. Moreover, the pager thread's execution path is almost identical
between most platforms excluding NOVA, HW, and Fisco.OC. Therefore,
this commit unifies the pager loop for the other platforms, and removes
the pager activation class.
