KVM: Drop @gpa from exported gfn=>pfn cache check() and refresh() helpers
Drop the @gpa param from the exported check()+refresh() helpers and limit changing the cache's GPA to the activate path. All external users just feed in gpc->gpa, i.e. this is a fancy nop. Allowing users to change the GPA at check()+refresh() is dangerous as those helpers explicitly allow concurrent calls, e.g. KVM could get into a livelock scenario. It's also unclear as to what the expected behavior should be if multiple tasks attempt to refresh with different GPAs.
