That feels wrong. We should only reset the 64bit view of the sysregs,
as the 32bit view is directly mapped to it.
Just to confirm, if guest access c9_PMCEID0, KVM will trap this register
with the register index as PMCEID0_EL0? Or still as c9_PMCEID0?
The traps are per execution mode (you'll get c9_PMCEID0 with a 32bit
guest). But the reset function is only concerned with the 64bit view.

Thanks,

	M.
