The recently introduced CHOOSE_HYP_SYM() macro picks one symbol
or another, depending on whether the kernel run as a VHE
hypervisor or not. For that, it uses the has_vhe() helper, which
is itself implemented as a final capability.
Unfortunately, __copy_hyp_vect_bpi now indirectly uses CHOOSE_HYP_SYM
to get the __bp_harden_hyp_vecs symbol, using has_vhe() in the process.
At this stage, the capability isn't final and things explode:

This is addressed using a two-fold process:
- Replace has_vhe() with is_kernel_in_hyp_mode(), which tests
whether we are running at EL2.
- Make CHOOSE_HYP_SYM() return an *undefined* symbol when
compiled in the nVHE hypervisor, as we really should never
use this helper in the nVHE-specific code.
With this in place, we're back to a bootable kernel again.
