x86/p2m: clarify foreign map handling in p2m_entry_modify()

Introduce an extra check and comment to ensure the outer caller has
possibly taken an extra reference on the foreign page that's about to be
removed from the p2m.  Otherwise the put_page() in p2m_entry_modify() won't
be safe to do ahead of the entry being removed form the p2m and any cached
states purged.

While there also replace the error codes for unreachable paths to use
EILSEQ.

No functional change intended.
