Ah, yeah.  I'm still not sure what to do about it.  I was going to
fold the dynamic hcall registration into the patch set before
upstreaming.  But then something paulus said made me rethink whether
the dynamic registration was a good idea.  Still need to sort this out
before the series is really ready.
