__kvm_set_memory_region does not use the hva at all, so trying to
catch use-after-delete is pointless and, worse, it fails access_ok
now that we apply it to all memslots including private kernel ones.
This fixes an AVIC regression.

Fixes: 09d952c971a5 ("KVM: check userspace_addr for all memslots")
