This series fixes and extends the determination of whether or
not an address is executable for LPAE translations. The main
patch is 3/3, and describes the details in its commit message.
Patch 1/3 prepares for patch 2/3, which is prep for 3/3, and also
fixes a potential problem with checking access permissions on
v6 processors when they use the simple AP format.

Changes since v3:
* Remove a useless is_aa64/case1/is_user code setting wxn=0 [Peter]

Changes since v2:
* Collect NSTable bits into ns
* Explicitly check {prot,user}_rw against PAGE_READ. !{prot,user}_rw
  means no read or write, but, since we can't have write without read,
  it also means !({prot,user}_rw & PAGE_READ). Making this explicit
  can reduce confusion when trying to determine with prot flag we
  actually care about. [Peter Maydell]

Changes since v1:
* There are now 3 patches instead of 5. This is due to approaching
  the prep patches in a different way. Most notably, simple AP
  format is now handled with its own function. [Peter Maydell]
* A check of SCTLR_AFE is guarded with ARM_FEATURE_V6K [Peter Maydell]
* All other cleanups suggested by Peter Maydell.

Tested by booting Linux on mach-virt with cortex-a15 and cortex-a57
(just up to 'Unable to mount root fs'), and also with a kvm-unit-tests
test. The curious can check out the unit test here [1].

Thanks in advance for reviews!
