For the KVM and XEN hypervisors to be usable, we need to enter the kernel in HYP mode. Now that we already are in non-secure state, HYP mode switching is within short reach.
While doing the non-secure switch, we have to enable the HVC instruction and setup the HYP mode HVBAR (while still secure). The actual switch is done by dropping back from a HYP mode handler without actually leaving HYP mode, so we introduce a new handler routine in the exception vector table. In the assembly switching routine - which we rename to hyp_gic_switch on the way - we save and restore the banked LR and SP registers around the hypercall to do the actual HYP mode switch. The C routine first checks whether we are in HYP mode already and also whether the virtualization extensions are available. It also checks whether the HYP mode switch was finally successful. The U-Boot command only adds and adjusts some error reporting.
