Holds the vector base address for any exception that is taken to Hyp mode.
AArch32 System register HVBAR bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register VBAR_EL2[31:0].
This register is present only when EL2 is capable of using AArch32. Otherwise, direct accesses to HVBAR are UNDEFINED.
If EL2 is not implemented, this register is RES0 from EL3.
HVBAR is a 32-bit register.

Vector Base Address. Bits[31:5] of the base address of the exception vectors for exceptions taken to this Exception level. Bits[4:0] of an exception vector are the exception offset.
The reset behavior of this field is:
Reserved, RES0.
Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
