Shouldn't this also handle the case where there is no conduit?

See below comment in apply_ssbd for rationale.

If my system doesn't have SMCCC1.1, or the FW doesn't have an
implementation of ARCH_WORKAROUND_2, does this stay as a NOP?

It looks like this would be patched to an SMC, which would be fatal on
systems without EL3 FW.

... and thus kernel_entry would be fatal.

Thanks,
Mark.
