I don't particularly like this part as it's not clear just by looking at
the code that it, in fact, generates AARCH64_BREAKPOINT_EL1. I would
make this clearer:

	if (is_kernel_in_hyp_mode() && (reg & (DBG_HMC_HYP >> 1)))
		ctrl->privilege = AARCH64_BREAKPOINT_EL1;

Alternatively, you could define the PMC field value as:

#define AARCH64_BREAKPOINT_EL2	0

and change the privilege to EL1 after masking, something like:

	ctrl->privilege = reg & 0x3;
	if (ctrl->privilege == AARCH64_BREAKPOINT_EL2)
		ctrl->privilege = AARCH64_BREAKPOINT_EL1;

BTW, do we need to check is_kernel_in_hyp_mode() when decoding? Is there
anything else that could have set this SSC/HMC/PMC fields other than
encode_ctrl_reg()?
