Although unreachable, still unregister the RCU before exiting

Unregister the RCU to be on par with what is done for other
accelerators.

This has reintroduced CID 1547782 (unreachable code).
We can't get to this point, so why are we trying to call a
function here ? This is not a place where the thread can exit.
The goal is to unify accelerators vcpu thread logic and
eventually remove AccelOpsClass::create_vcpu_thread(), superseded
by AccelOpsClass::cpu_thread_routine(). I couldn't finish RR for
10.1 but squeezed this patch in. Let's revert it, and I'll
re-commit it later.
