With a VHE capable CPU, kernel can run at EL2 and is a decided at early
boot. If some of the CPUs didn't start it EL2 or doesn't have VHE, we
could have CPUs running at different exception levels, all in the same
kernel! This patch adds an early check for the secondary CPUs to detect
such situations.
For each non-boot CPU add a sanity check to make sure we don't have
different run levels w.r.t the boot CPU. We save the information on
whether the boot CPU is running in hyp mode or not and ensure the
remaining CPUs match it.

With ARMv8.1 VHE extension, it will be possible to run the kernel
at EL2 (aka HYP mode). In order for the kernel to easily find out
where it is running, add a new predicate that returns whether or
not the kernel is in HYP mode.
For completeness, the 32bit code also get such a predicate (always
returning false) so that code common to both architecture (timers,
KVM) can use it transparently.

We already have __hyp_text_{start,end} to express the boundaries
of the HYP text section, and __kvm_hyp_code_{start,end} are getting
in the way of a more modular world switch code.
Just turn __kvm_hyp_code_{start,end} into #defines mapping the
linker-emited symbols.

This reverts commit 82b2f495fb. The
__boot_cpu_mode variable is flushed in head.S after being written,
therefore the additional cache flushing is no longer required.

Currently, the code for setting the __cpu_boot_mode flag is munged in
with el2_setup. This makes things difficult on a BE bringup as a
memory access has to have occurred before el2_setup which is the place
that we'd like to set the endianess on the current EL.
Create a new function for setting __cpu_boot_mode and have el2_setup
return the mode the CPU. Also define a new constant in virt.h,
BOOT_CPU_MODE_EL1, for readability.

Secondary CPUs write to __boot_cpu_mode with caches disabled, and thus a
cached value of __boot_cpu_mode may be incoherent with that in memory.
This could lead to a failure to detect mismatched boot modes.
This patch adds flushing to ensure that writes by secondaries to
__boot_cpu_mode are made visible before we test against it.

If booted in EL2, install an dummy hypervisor whose only purpose
is to be replaced by a full fledged one.
A minimal API allows to:
- obtain the current HYP vectors (__hyp_get_vectors)
- set new HYP vectors (__hyp_set_vectors)

To be able to signal the availability of EL2 to other parts of
the kernel, record the boot mode.
Once booted, two predicates indicate if HYP mode is available,
and if not, whether this is due to a boot mode mismatch or not.
