Mode changes happen only at privilege level changes.  E.g. AArch32 binary makes
a system call to an AArch64 kernel, or an AArch32 guest kernel takes an i/o
emulation trap to an AArch64 hypervisor.

But for this sort of system debugging, it would be nice to be able to
single-step through the whole operation.
