Yes. An EL cannot change its own bit width and needs to rely on the EL
above returning in the right mode. IOW a hypervisor needs to know if it
is launching a 32- or 64-bit guest already.

I suppose in theory we could supply a mode switch hypercall, but we
don't and I think that is rather out of scope here...
