While we could just set PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS after an exit to compensate,
instead hard-disable interrupts before entering the guest.  This way,
we won't have to worry about interactions if we take an interrupt
during the guest entry code.  While I don't see any obvious
interactions, it could change in the future (e.g. it would be bad if
the non-hv code were used on 64-bit or if 32-bit guest lazy interrupt
disabling, since the non-hv code changes IVPR among other things).

s/32-bit guest lazy/32-bit gets lazy/
