When FEAT_S1PIE (stage 1 permission indirection) is supported we
currently enable and use it in the hypervisor when running in VHE mode
but not when running in nVHE or hVHE mode.  While systems with
FEAT_S1PIE would normally use VHE users can configure them for nVHE or
hVHE, for example in order to run protected guests.  Enable FEAT_S1PIE
with nVHE and hVHE.

No. nVHE is dead, and I'm not adding support for random stuff that
appeared over 10 years after v8.0. If you have S1PIE, you have VHE.

If you force the kernel to run with E2H==0, that's your own problem.
