Is this actually necessary?  I.e. does kvm.ko need to be *loaded* in order for
kvm-arm64.ko to be loaded?

If kvm-arm64.ko does indeed have a hard dependency on kvm.ko, then I think it
makes sense to not have redundant "select" statements below.  As an outsider,
it's super confusing because the KVM_S390_ARM64 are incomplete, e.g. are lacking
things like VIRT_XFER_TO_GUEST_WORK (at least, I assume those are lacking), and
makes it hard to see what is actually unique to kvm-arm64.ko.

If kvm-arm64.ko doesn't have a dependency on kvm.ko, e.g. to initialize hardware
or something, then this "depends on" should go away.
