KVM: Explicitly disallow activatating a gfn_to_pfn_cache with INVALID…
…_GPA Explicit disallow activating a gfn_to_pfn_cache with an error gpa, i.e. INVALID_GPA, to ensure that KVM doesn't mistake a GPA-based cache for an HVA-based cache (KVM uses INVALID_GPA as a magic value to differentiate between GPA-based and HVA-based caches). WARN if KVM attempts to activate a cache with INVALID_GPA, purely so that new caches need to at least consider what to do with a "bad" GPA, as all existing usage of kvm_gpc_activate() guarantees gpa != INVALID_GPA. I.e. removing the WARN in the future is completely reasonable if doing so would yield cleaner/better code overall.
