Commit 828e9834e9a5b7e6 ("arm64: head: create a new function for setting
the boot_cpu_mode flag") added BOOT_CPU_MODE_EL1, a nonzero value
replacing uses of zero. However it failed to update __boot_cpu_mode
appropriately.

A CPU booted at EL2 writes BOOT_CPU_MODE_EL2 to __boot_cpu_mode[0], and
a CPU booted at EL1 writes BOOT_CPU_MODE_EL1 to __boot_cpu_mode[1].
Later is_hyp_mode_mismatched() determines there to be a mismatch if
__boot_cpu_mode[0] != __boot_cpu_mode[1].

If all CPUs are booted at EL1, __boot_cpu_mode[0] will be set to
BOOT_CPU_MODE_EL1, but __boot_cpu_mode[1] will retain its initial value
of zero, and is_hyp_mode_mismatched will erroneously determine that the
boot modes are mismatched. This hasn't been a problem so far, but later
patches which will make use of is_hyp_mode_mismatched() expect it to
work correctly.

This patch initialises __boot_cpu_mode[1] to BOOT_CPU_MODE_EL1, fixing
the erroneous mismatch detection when all CPUs are booted at EL1.
