qcow2: Make qcow2_cache_table_release() work only in Linux
We are using QEMU_MADV_DONTNEED to discard the memory of individual L2 cache tables. The problem with this is that those semantics are specific to the Linux madvise() system call. Other implementations of madvise() (including the very Linux implementation of posix_madvise()) don't do that, so we cannot use them for the same purpose. This patch makes the code Linux-specific and uses madvise() directly since there's no point in going through qemu_madvise() for this.
