AltiVec and SPE unavailable exceptions follows the same path. While 
kvmppc_supports_spe() will always return false kvmppc_supports_altivec()
may not.

You are right on HV case MSP[SPV] should be always zero when an unavailabe
exception take place. The distrinction was made because on non HV the guest
doesn't have direct access to MSR[SPE]. The name of the bit (not the position)
was changed on HV cores.
