Yes, dodgy is a good word. The other choices, maintain a mask just for 
the print or dump the static key and always use the cpu_32bit_el0_mask 
or some combination, weren't much better in the "ick" category. If 
anyone sees a better way I'm open to suggestion, although simply 
dropping this last patch is fine too.
