All the ones in this patch use the

    if (object_property_find(OBJECT(cpu), "has_el3", NULL)) {
        object_property_set_bool(OBJECT(cpu), false, "has_el3", &err);
        ...
    }

pattern, which is fine, because -cpu host (and other non-EL3
CPUs like cortex-a57) will not have the property and we'll
silently continue as we should. It's only the vexpress and
virt boards where you made it fail on the property not existing.
