Hey Marc,
I'm an idiot and was responding to v1. Here's the same damn comment, but
on v2!

Does this need to test ID_AA64MMFR1_EL1.VH as well? Otherwise I don't
see what would stop us from attempting hVHE on a system with asymmetric
support for VHE, as the software override was only evaluated on the boot
CPU.
