[PATCH v2 2/2] arm64: don't load 32-bit binaries if platform has no aarch32_el0

Kernel option COMPAT defines the ability of executing aarch32 binaries.
Some platforms does not support aarch32 mode, and so cannot execute that
binaries. But we cannot just disable COMPAT for them because the same
kernel binary may be used by multiple platforms.

In this patch, system_supports_aarch32_el0() is introduced to detect
aarch32 support at run-time.
