This patch should no longer be necessary if the suggestion I made in the
previous patch works the way I think it should. But, regarding this patch,
I do like that the "The CPU wants the OS to decide which satp mode to use"
comment became specific to KVM, which makes more sense to me. Maybe we
should just change that comment to something like
/*
* With some accelerators, such as KVM, the OS dictates which satp mode to
* use. For those cases, satp_mode.supported is zero and there's nothing
* to do here.
*/
