Unlike what the name implies, this function returns true for some
cases that HPFAR is not valid (i.e. SEA).  I think the function
returns true when KVM doesn't need HPFAR, or when HPFAR is valid.
IMHO the name might be a bit misleading, although I don't have
a good name for this.  It would be nice to state that in the
comment at least.

Thank you,
Reiji
