This ends up calling DO_KVM macro twice with same parameters which
generates the following compile error:

 arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_low_64e.S:307: Error: symbol `kvmppc_resume_14_0x01B' is already defined
 arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_low_64e.S:319: Error: symbol `kvmppc_resume_13_0x01B' is already defined

We can live with it if we patch DO_KVM like this:

diff --git a/arch/powerpc/include/asm/kvm_booke_hv_asm.h b/arch/powerpc/include/asm/kvm_booke_hv_asm.h
