+This capability indicates that the kernel supports the mode 3 setting for the
+"Address Translation Mode on Interrupt" aka "Alternate Interrupt Location"
+resource that is controlled with the H_SET_MODE hypercall.

+This capability allows a guest kernel to use a better-performance mode for
+handling interrupts and system calls.
