for some reason this is hurting my brain. I can't easily see that the
two implementations are equivalent.
I can see that the kernel-to-hyp masking is trivially correct, but are
we always sure that the upper bits that we mask off are always set?

Why do we have both kern_hyp_va() and KERN_TO_HYP and how are they
related again?
