According to the documenation, all bits but DABRX_USER, DABRX_KERNEL, and
DABRX_BTI must be zero.  This implies DABRX_HYP cannot be set.

BTW, the requirement that DABRX_USER and DABRX_KERNEL cannot both be zero
at the same time is also there, cfr. your comment and check in
pseries_set_xdabr().

Unfortunately, I cannot test it.
