At the moment it is possible to reach return_to_hypervisor with
interrupts enabled (it happens all the times when we are actually going
back to hypervisor mode, when we don't take the return_to_guest path).

If that happens we risk loosing the content of ELR_hyp: if we receive an
interrupt right after restoring ELR_hyp, once we come back we'll have a
different value in ELR_hyp and the original is lost.

In order to make the return_to_hypervisor path safe, we disable
interrupts before restoring any registers.
