In icount mode, instructions that access io memory spaces in the middle
of the translation block invoke TB recompilation. After recompilation,
such instructions become last in the TB and are allowed to access io
memory spaces.
When the code includes instruction like i386 'xchg eax, 0xffffd080'
which accesses APIC, QEMU goes into an infinite loop of the recompilation.
This instruction includes two memory accesses - one read and one write.
After the first access, APIC calls cpu_report_tpr_access, which restores
the CPU state to get the current eip. But cpu_restore_state_from_tb
resets the cpu->can_do_io flag which makes the second memory access invalid.
Therefore the second memory access causes a recompilation of the block.
Then these operations repeat again and again.
This patch moves resetting cpu->can_do_io flag from
cpu_restore_state_from_tb to cpu_loop_exit* functions.
It also adds a parameter for cpu_restore_state which controls restoring
icount. There is no need to restore icount when we only query CPU state
without breaking the TB. Restoring it in such cases leads to the
incorrect flow of the virtual time.
In most cases new parameter is true (icount should be recalculated).
But there are two cases in i386 and openrisc when the CPU state is only
queried without the need to break the TB. This patch fixes both of
these cases.

The MC68040 MMU provides the size of the access that
triggers the page fault.
This size is set in the Special Status Word which
is written in the stack frame of the access fault
exception.
So we need the size in m68k_cpu_unassigned_access() and
m68k_cpu_handle_mmu_fault().
To be able to do that, this patch modifies the prototype of
handle_mmu_fault handler, tlb_fill() and probe_write().
do_unassigned_access() already includes a size parameter.
This patch also updates handle_mmu_fault handlers and
tlb_fill() of all targets (only parameter, no code change).

Move cpu_sync_bndcs_hflags() function from mpx_helper.c
to helper.c because mpx_helper.c need be disabled when
tcg is disabled.

This speeds up SMM switches. Later on it may remove the need to take
the BQL, and it may also allow to reuse code between TCG and KVM.
Backports commit f8c45c6550b9ff1e1f0b92709ff3213a79870879 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.
