Hm, quick FYI: KVM on ARM needs all CPUs to be in Hypervisor Mode.
You can check this by looking in your dmesg:

if it says:
[    0.005874] CPU: All CPU(s) started in HYP mode.
Then yes: LPAE would be great.

But if it says:
[    0.005306] CPU: All CPU(s) started in SVC mode.
then you probably don't need LPAE since KVM is not an option. 

Cheers,
Christian
