Move the gfn_to_pfn_cache lock initialization to another helper and
call the new helper during VM/vCPU creation. There are race
conditions possible due to kvm_gfn_to_pfn_cache_init()'s
ability to re-initialize the cache's locks.
For example: a race between ioctl(KVM_XEN_HVM_EVTCHN_SEND) and
kvm_gfn_to_pfn_cache_init() leads to a corrupted shinfo gpc lock.

read_lock_irqsave(&gpc->lock, ...) |
| kvm_gfn_to_pfn_cache_init
| rwlock_init(&gpc->lock)
read_unlock_irqrestore(&gpc->lock, ...) |
Rename "cache_init" and "cache_destroy" to activate+deactivate to
avoid implying that the cache really is destroyed/freed.
Note, there more races in the newly named kvm_gpc_activate() that will
be addressed separately.
