Hmmm. This means that you cannot use the BW on a system where EL3 is
implemented, but where you decide to enter at EL2 anyway (the write to
CNTFRQ_EL0 will UNDEF).

I don't care much (I always want the BW to be the first piece of SW to
run), but this is a rather subtle change in behaviour, and we'd better
capture it in the commit message.

With that,
