When a CPU is reset it needs to be put into the exception level it had when it entered the kernel. Update cpu_reset() to accept an argument el2_switch which signals cpu_reset() to enter the soft reset address at EL2. If el2_switch is not set the soft reset address will be entered at EL1. Update cpu_soft_restart() and soft_restart() to pass the return of is_hyp_mode_available() as the el2_switch value to cpu_reset(). Also update the comments of cpu_reset(), cpu_soft_restart() and soft_restart() to reflect this change.This will blow up without warning with KVM, and I think we need to address that first.
Yes. I think we can just put in a conditional on KVM as a workaround until KVM will work with this. -Geoff
