[PATCH v12 34/84] KVM: Add a helper to lookup a pfn without grabbing a reference

Add a kvm_follow_pfn() wrapper, kvm_lookup_pfn(), to allow looking up a
gfn=>pfn mapping without the caller getting a reference to any underlying
page. The API will be used in flows that want to know if a gfn points at
a valid pfn, but don't actually need to do anything with the pfn.
