Hm, not so. This doesn't depend on the 'longmode' flag; that's only for
the structs in shared memory. For an actual hypercall, the compat
behaviour depends more sensibly on the actual CPU mode in which the
hypercall was made.
I'm not sure I see how to use 32-bit guest mode from the KVM self
tests. Even KVM_HC_SEND_IPI doesn't seem to have a 32-bit test... or a
positive test at all, in fact. All we seem to do is test that it
returns -ENOSYS when *disabled*.
