Ok, it does add a little bit of duplicated code. But it also gets rid of
the boolean argument that I never liked. As you suggest I might as well
move this into kvm_hypercall_stolen_time().

This is a bit more tricky. It's a long because that's the declared type
of the SMCCC return in kvm_hvc_call_handler(). I can't (easily) move the
code into kvm_hvc_call_handler() because that is compiled for arm (as
well as arm64) and we don't have the definitions for stolen time there.
The best option I could come up with is to have a dummy stub for arm and
use generic types for this function.

This means we need a type which can contain both a gpa_t and the
SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED error code.

I'm open to alternative suggestions on how to make this work.

Thanks,

Steve
