Consistency. Print message 1) only if secure rx51 smc instruction is
called or 2) print message always (also if smc is not called). With
that patch message is printed (enabled/disabled) only if device is
rx51 and device type is HS.

For information it is also good to know that in qemu that special
secure smc instruction was not called.
