I should probably also mention that another part of my thinking was that
when we implement GCS for EL1 we'll need to ensure that everything is
synced during the pivot of the EL1 GCS (each EL needs an independent
GCS). We won't be able to rely on having an ERET there so it's going to
have more stringent requirements, I was partly punting to think things
through fully there.
