I think this should be `>=`, as in kvm_vm_is_protected(): MARKER()
gives the marker the same value as the enumerator after it, so `>`
leaves out VM_PKVM. As posted, kvm_phys_addr_ioremap() no longer
returns -EPERM for non-protected VMs under pKVM (EL2 still rejects the
mapping, so it's only the errno that changes).
