I think this comment should either be deleted or explain why this works
as opposed to stating the obvious.  How about:

		/*
		 * We can emulate the guest's configuration of which
		 * stack pointer to use when executing in virtual EL2 by
		 * using the equivalent feature in EL1 to point to
		 * either the EL1 or EL0 stack pointer.
		 */
