This isn't quite right, it's doing the HPT handling based on whether
or not we *can* do RPT rather than whether we *are* doing RPT.
It'll mostly work for now, while only radix-on-radix and hash-on-hash
are supported, but that won't be true forever.
It will already be wrong if, for example, you tried to run a POWER8
TCG guest on a host that happened to be a POWER9 in radix mode.
