This looks a bit odd. And actually it also ends up registering them in
the SMT error case (which seems harmelss but a bit inconsistent).

I wonder whether you could make a spapr_nested_reset() function called
by spapr_machine_reset that would take care of
unregistering and reregistering nested hypercalls based on the caps that
were set.

Thanks,
Nick
