[Qemu-devel] [PULL 07/26] accel/tcg/user-exec: Don't parse aarch64 insns to test for read vs write

[Peter Maydell]

In cpu_signal_handler() for aarch64 hosts, currently we parse
the faulting instruction to see if it is a load or a store.
Since the 3.16 kernel (~2014), the kernel has provided us with
the syndrome register for a fault, which includes the WnR bit.
Use this instead if it is present, only falling back to
instruction parsing if not.
