The ultravisor processor mode is introduced in POWER platforms that
supports the Protected Execution Facility (PEF). Ultravisor is higher
privileged than hypervisor mode.

In PEF enabled platforms, the MSR_S bit is used to indicate if the
thread is in secure state. With the MSR_S bit, the privilege state of
the thread is now determined by MSR_S, MSR_HV and MSR_PR, as follows:

      HV  PR  S=0         S=1
      ---------------------------------------------
      0   0   privileged  privileged (secure guest kernel)
      0   1   problem     problem (secure guest userspace)
      1   0   hypervisor  ultravisor
      1   1   problem     reserved
