The kvm_hypercall set for LoongArch is limited to a1-a5.
The mention of a6 in the comment is undefined that needs to be rectified.

Dandan,

Nice catch. In future hypercall abi may expand such as the number of
input register and output register, or async hypercall function if there
is really such requirement.

Anyway the modification is deserved and it is enough to use now, thanks
for doing it.

Maybe it is better to implement kvm_hypercall6() than remove a6 now?
That is one option also. The main reason is that there is no such requirement in near future :(, I prefer to removing the annotation and keeping it clean.
