I'm worried this is encoding the behaviour of a particular hypervisor in the guest kernel. If we *can't* use msgsndp then the hypervisor better do something to stop us from using it. If it would be preferable for us not to use msgsndp, then the hypervisor can tell us that somehow, eg. in the device tree. ? cheers
