Sorry, the original root cause above is incorrect.

The real root cause:
   __KVMTEST is used when CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_PR is defined.
   MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_PSERIES(0x900, 0x900, decrementer) includes __KVMTEST
     (it will start at 0x900 and just end at 0x980 !!)
   but STD_EXCEPTION_HV(0x980, 0x982, hdecrementer) is just started at 0x980 !

The relationship:
  dependency: __KVMTEST --> KVMTEST_PR --> CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_PR --> CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_64_PR
  using: MASKABLE_EXCEPTION_PSERIES --> SOFTEN_TEST_PR --> KVMTEST_PR --> __KVMTEST

Please reference below:
  0x93c..0x944 is just for __KVMTEST which will be inserted into when CONFIG_KVM_BOOK3S_PR is defined
  and the instructions of __KVMTEST are reordered for optimization.
