changing any functionality at this stage, just preparing for that.
You are changing functionality.

Before, beat_set_dabr() and lv1_set_dabr() would have been called with dabrx = 3
(DABRX_KERNEL | DABRX_USER). Now they're called with dabrx = 15
(DABRX_ALL = DABRX_BTI | DABRX_HYP | DABRX_KERNEL | DABRX_USER).

No idea what's the impact of this...
