arch/arm64: Use correct SPSR.DAIF mask for BL31 and payload
The PSTATE mask bits for Debug exceptions, external Aborts, Interrupts and Fast interrupts are usually best left unset: under normal circumstances none of those exceptions should occur in firmware, and if they do it's better to get a crash close to the code that caused it (rather than much later when the kernel first unmasks them). For this reason arm64_cpu_init unmasks them right after boot. However, the EL2 payload was still running with all mask bits set, which this patch fixes. BL31, on the other hand, explicitly wants to be entered with all masks set (see calling convention in docs/firmware-design.md), which we had previously not been doing. It doesn't seem to make a difference at the moment, but since it's explicitly specified we should probably comply. BRANCH=None BUG=None TEST=Booted Oak, confirmed with raw_read_daif() in payload that mask bits are now cleared.
