The WFE and YIELD instructions are really only hints and in TCG's case
they were useful to move the scheduling on from one vCPU to the next. In
the parallel context (MTTCG) this just causes an unnecessary cpu_exit
and contention of the BQL.

Add support for generating the ISS (Instruction Specific Syndrome)
for Data Abort exceptions taken from AArch32. These syndromes are
used by hypervisors for example to trap and emulate memory accesses.
This is the equivalent for AArch32 guests of the work done for AArch64
guests in commit aaa1f954d4cab243.
Backports commit 9bb6558a218bf7e466e5ac1100639517d8a30d33 from qemu
We've currently got 18 architectures in QEMU, and thus 18 target-xxx
folders in the root folder of the QEMU source tree. More architectures
(e.g. RISC-V, AVR) are likely to be included soon, too, so the main
folder of the QEMU sources slowly gets quite overcrowded with the
target-xxx folders.
To disburden the main folder a little bit, let's move the target-xxx
folders into a dedicated target/ folder, so that target-xxx/ simply
becomes target/xxx/ instead.
