[PATCH v7 1/4] RISC-V: KVM: Support runtime configuration for per-VM's HGATP mode

Thanks for catching this. I’ll handle the kvm == NULL case (from kvm_dev_ioctl)
and return the host maximum based on kvm_riscv_gstage_max_pgd_levels in v8.

Also, if the intended semantics of KVM_CAP_VM_GPA_BITS is to report the maximum
supported value, then we could simply always return the host maximum based on
kvm_riscv_gstage_max_pgd_levels.

Thanks,
Fangyu
