ARM: Fix issue with with way MPIDR is read to include affinity levels.

Browse source 
The simple_bootloader checks for CPU0 in a manner incompatible with systems
actually using affinity levels -- just looking at MPIDR[7:0].  However, in
future we may wish to use real affinity levels and this method will be in danger
of matching several CPUs with affinity0 = 0.

Match affinity2 == affinity1 == affinity0 == 0 instead.
