Madness. ;-)

Things are becoming a bit redundant here: you have a has_vhe() test,
followed by a is_kernel_in_hyp_mode() test in kvm_ksym_ref(). Certainly
this could do with some simplification. Another thing to think about is
whether has_vhe() is the right thing to use as it isn't valid until you
have discovered the capabilities. I think it is fine, but you should
check it.

Could you add a small comment to the commit message as to what this is
for? It certainly piqued my curiosity, and keeping a record of it would
be nice.
