No, please. This only works by luck when a guest has AArch32 EL0, and
creates more havoc on a NV guest. In general, this PSR_EL_MASK creates
more problem than anything else, and doesn't fit the rest of the code.

So this needs to:
- explicitly only apply to exceptions from AArch64
- handle exception from EL2, since this helper already deals with that

The latter point of course means introducing GCSCR_EL2 (and everything
that depends on it, such as the trap handling).
