Hmmm. Why do we limit this to these two symbols instead of making it a
property of the "CHOOSE_*" implementation?

The use of CHOOSE_HYP_SYM is already forbidden in the EL2 code (see
how any symbol results in __nvhe_undefined_symbol being emitted). Does
anything break if we have:

#define CHOOSE_NVHE_SYM(x)	x

when __KVM_NVHE_HYPERVISOR__ is defined?

Thanks,

	M.
