For rasters, e.g. DEM based on binning the lidar points with r.in.lidar, you can use r.mapcalc to shift it (e.g. expression "new = old + 2"). The shift can be determined by binning (or even interpolating) the points, followed by querying raster using the GPS points as a vector using v.what.rast, and then by computing the difference using v.db.addcolumn and v.db.update. Finally, you can average the difference using v.db.univar. One (average) values will be usually good enough for lidar point cloud, for UAV point cloud, spatially variable shift might be needed.
