All that should be handled in:

  void HELPER(pre_smc)(CPUARMState *env, uint32_t syndrome)

which should cause things to be trapped if the CPU is in an invalid
state to execute the SMC instruction. If the exception is a valid SMC we
end up in arm_cpu_do_interrupt where we may divert to
arm_handle_psci_call.
