Doesn't, was just aestethics and saves someone having to check the values to
make sure it wasn't an error.

Hm... this sounds like something that should be sanitised in
set_id_aa64mmfr0_el1(). Sorry, but I just can't tell if TGran{4,16,64} are
writable by userspace.

How about (untested):

static bool feat_lpas2(struct kvm *kvm)
{
	if (kvm_has_feat_exact(kvm, ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1, TGRAN4, IMP) ||
	    kvm_has_feat_exact(kvm, ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1, TGRAN16, IMP) ||
	    kvm_has_feat_exact(kvm, ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1, TGRAN4_2, IMP) ||
	    kvm_has_feat_exact(kvm, ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1, TGRAN16_2, IMP))
		return false;

	return true;
}

where, in case there's not something similar already and I just don't know about
it:

#define kvm_has_feat_exact(kvm, id, fld, val)			\
	kvm_cmp_feat(kvm, id, fld, =, val)

The idea being that if one of the granules does not support 52 bit, then it's
not supported by any of the other granules.

Thanks,
