Ignore 'kvm-arm.mode=protected' when using VHE so that kvm_get_mode()
only returns KVM_MODE_PROTECTED on systems where the feature is available.

protected: nVHE-based mode with support for guests whose

- Not valid if the kernel is running in EL2.
Defaults to VHE/nVHE based on hardware support. Setting
mode to "protected" will disable kexec and hibernation
