If anything, it's ARM that should support module build in VHE mode
(Linux would still need to know whether it will be running at EL1 or
EL2, but KVM's functionality is as self-contained as on x86 in the VHE
case).
I don't see this happening anytime soon. At least not before we
declare the arm64 single kernel image policy to be obsolete.

--verbose please. :) I am sure you're right, but I don't understand the link between the two.
