Bus lock debug exception is a feature that can notify the kernel by
generate an #DB trap after the instruction acquires a bus lock when
CPL>0. This allows the kernel to enforce user application throttling or
mitigations.
This feature is enumerated via CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0).ECX[bit 24].

We were fudging TBI1 enabled to speed up the generated code.
Now that we've improved the code generation, remove this.
Also, tidy the comment to reflect the current code.
The pauth test was testing a kernel address (-1) and making
incorrect assumptions about TBI1; stick to userland addresses.

The float-access functions stfl_*, stfq*, ldfl* and ldfq* are now
unused; remove them. (Accesses to float64 and float32 types can be
made with the ldl/stl/ldq/stq functions, as float64 and float32 are
guaranteed to be typedefs for normal integer types.)

When working with performance monitoring counters, we look at
MDCR_EL2.HPMN as part of the check whether a counter is enabled. This
check fails, because MDCR_EL2.HPMN is reset to 0, meaning that no
counters are "enabled" for < EL2.
That's in violation of the Arm specification, which states that
> On a Warm reset, this field [MDCR_EL2.HPMN] resets to the value in
> PMCR_EL0.N
That's also what a comment in the code acknowledges, but the necessary
adjustment seems to have been forgotten when support for more counters
was added.
This change fixes the issue by setting the reset value to PMCR.N, which
is four.

In cpu_exec() we have a longstanding workaround for compilers which
do not correctly implement the part of the sigsetjmp()/siglongjmp()
spec which requires that local variables which are not changed
between the setjmp and the longjmp retain their value.
I recently ran across the upstream clang bug report for this; add a
link to it to the comment describing the workaround, and generally
expand the comment, so that we have a reasonable chance in future of
understanding why it's there and determining when we can remove it,
assuming clang eventually fixes the bug.
Remove the /* buggy compiler */ comments on the #else and #endif:
they don't add anything to understanding and are somewhat misleading
since they're sandwiching the code path for *non*-buggy compilers.

cpsr has been treated as being the same as spsr, but it isn't.
Since PSTATE_SS isn't in cpsr, remove it and move it into env->pstate.
This allows us to add support for CPSR_DIT, adding helper functions
to merge SPSR_ELx to and from CPSR.

Add support for FEAT_DIT. DIT (Data Independent Timing) is a required
feature for ARMv8.4. Since virtual machine execution is largely
nondeterministic and TCG is outside of the security domain, it's
implemented as a NOP.

The FW and AW bits of SCR_EL3 are RES1 only in some contexts. Force them
to 1 only when there is no support for AArch32 at EL1 or above.
The reset value will be 0x30 only if the CPU is AArch64-only; if there
is support for AArch32 at EL1 or above, it will be reset to 0.
Also adds helper function isar_feature_aa64_aa32_el1 to check if AArch32
is supported at EL1 or above.

Expose the VMX exit/entry load pkrs control bits in
VMX_TRUE_EXIT_CTLS/VMX_TRUE_ENTRY_CTLS MSRs to guest, which supports the
PKS in nested VM.

Protection Keys for Supervisor-mode pages is a simple extension of
the PKU feature that QEMU already implements. For supervisor-mode
pages, protection key restrictions come from a new MSR. The MSR
has no XSAVE state associated to it.
PKS is only respected in long mode. However, in principle it is
possible to set the MSR even outside long mode, and in fact
even the XSAVE state for PKRU could be set outside long mode
using XRSTOR. So do not limit the migration subsections for
PKRU and PKRS to long mode.
