gru: fix cache coherency issues with instruction retry

Browse Source 
Fix two problems related to GRU instruction failures.  Cache coherency is
not maintained for CBEs except when loading or unloading contexts.  When
reading a CBE to extract error information, the CBE must first be flushed
from the cache.

The function that reads kerrnel CBEs was reading the wrong CBE.
