[Qemu-arm] [PATCH 0/2] Fix the last Hyp mode bug and turn it on for A7, A15

[Peter Maydell]

This patchset fixes the last serious bug in our implementation
of Hyp mode (aka EL2 for AArch32), and turns the feature bit
on for the Cortex-A7 and Cortex-A15 CPUs.

The bug is that Hyp mode is an exception to the previous
general rule that every AArch32 mode (except SYS, which
always shares with USR) has its own banked r13, r14 and
SPSR. Instead Hyp has a banked r13 and SPSR, but r14 is
shared with USR and SYS. We were accidentally implementing
it as banked, which results in remarkably nonobvious
failure modes.

With this fix, I can boot an AArch32 guest that uses KVM to
boot an AArch32 nested guest, and I can also boot an L4Re/
Fiasco guest successfully.

Not entirely sure what to do about this for 3.1 -- maybe
put in the bugfix patch but hold off on actually setting
the feature bit til 4.0?

thanks
