ARM: virt: simplify __hyp_stub_install epilog
__hyp_stub_install duplicates quite a bit of safe_svcmode_maskall by forcing the CPU back to SVC. This is unnecessary, as safe_svcmode_maskall is called just after. Furthermore, the way we build SPSR_hyp is buggy as we fail to mask the interrupts, leading to interesting behaviours on TC2 + UEFI. The fix is to simply remove this code and rely on safe_svcmode_maskall to do the right thing.
