Right, so this currently sets the facility bits but we don't set the
associated guest SCLP bits. I guess since we are not enabling for VSIE
now it would make sense to not set either.

So then just to confirm we are on the same page: I will drop these
patches 16-18 and leave the kvm facilities unset until we wish to enable
VSIE. And then also make sure we are checking sclp bits (e.g. patch
19). OK?
