I'm planning to eventually do that once the hVHE code actually does
something useful. So far, it doesn't really do much.

But what I really want is to *hide* this low level option, and have it
driven by something like "kvm-arm.mode=hvhe,protected". It is just
that writing a parser is hard at the point where this is evaluated (we
don't have much of the kernel running).
