Because otherwise you'll never allocate and hardware_enable_all will fail:

Switch to broadcast mode on CPU1
svm_hardware_enable: svm_data is NULL on 1
kvm: enabling virtualization on CPU1 failed
qemu-system-x86[8698]: segfault at 20 ip 00000000004db22f sp
00007fff0a3b4560 error 6 in qemu-system-x86_64[400000+21f000]

Perhaps I can make this work better by putting the allocation within
hardware_enable_all.
