This is definitely the *wrong* namespace for this. The "STANDARD_HYP"
space is owned by ARM for hypercalls that are implementable by any
hypervisors, and for which there is an ARM-owned specification.

Unless you plan to get this adopted as an ARM spec (pretty doubtful),
this should go instead in the KVM-specific space, which currently has
a single user (the PTP stuff), although I plan to add a couple more
shortly.
