- HCR_EL2.API (bit 41) must be initialised to 0b1
+ For CPUs with Activity Monitors Unit v1 (AMUv1) extension present:

The requirements described above for CPU mode, caches, MMUs, architected
timers, coherency and system registers apply to all CPUs. All CPUs must
enter the kernel in the same exception level.
