Yes, that is correct.  In fact, you'll notice that this patch slightly changes
the code in ms_hyperv_init_platform() so that shared_gpa_boundary is
set only when it is known to be valid; otherwise it is left as zero.  This
change is specifically so that shared_gpa_boundary is zero for the VBS
case.
