I agree and I did think about it. The issue is, some of these calls are
deep burried from the higher leve dispatcher callbacks (e.g.,
user_mem_abort->kvm_pgtable_stage2_map). We could go all in and remove
all of them if you are happy with that change. Also, some of the call
paths aren't valid for certain VM types, that adds quite a lot of dummy
callbacks (now that they all are mandatory. e.g., pVM or Realms).
