The bug: It's impossible to disable interrupt on M-profile.
Test case: I can try to build a binary, the source will be in Ada.

I do not intend to do a full review of interrupt handling in the
M-profile. I just noticed that disabling interrupt was not effective,
and found this condition that looked faulty to me. I want to fix the
condition to match requirements of the comment above.

Much more difficult for me, but that's what peer-review is for, right?.

You're right I did this a little bit too quickly.
The expression should be:
if (interrupt_request & CPU_INTERRUPT_HARD
&& (!IS_M(env) || env->regs[15] < 0xfffffff0)
&& !(env->uncached_cpsr & CPSR_I)) {
I'll resend a patch, just in case.
