If we're directly booting a Linux kernel and the CPU supports both
EL3 and EL2, we start the kernel in EL2, as it expects. We must also
set the SCR_EL3.HCE bit in this situation, so that the HVC
instruction is enabled rather than UNDEFing. Otherwise at least some
kernels will panic when trying to initialize KVM in the guest.
