[PATCH v2 6/6] aarch64: Start Xen on Armv8-R at EL2

When bootwrapper is compiled with Xen support and it is started
at EL2 on Armv8-R AArch64, keep the current EL and jump to the
Xen image.

v2 changes:
 - Don't write 1 on flag_keep_el since now the logic will jump to
   reset_no_el3 and write it there.
 - removed check for smc conduit when Xen is booted, change commit
   message.
