Ouch.  Might be worth explicitly stating what goes wrong.  Even though it's super
obvious in hindsight, it still took me a few seconds to understand what
precondition you were referring to, e.g. I was trying to figure out how selecting
the MMIO address depended on the guest code being loaded...

Isn't there a hole after CODE_AND_DATA_MEMSLOT?  I.e. after memslot 0?  The reason
I ask is because if so, then we can do the temporarily heinous, but hopefully forward
looking thing of adding a helper to wrap kvm_vm_elf_load() + ucall_init().

E.g. I think we can do this immediately, and then at some point in the 6.2 cycle
add a dedicated region+memslot for the ucall MMIO page.
