[Qemu-devel] [PULL 03/22] armv7m: Replace armv7m.hack with unassigned_access handler

[Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>]

From: Michael Davidsaver <mdavidsaver@gmail.com>

For v7m we need to catch attempts to execute from special
addresses at 0xfffffff0 and above. Previously we did this
with the aid of a hacky special purpose lump of memory
in the address space and a check in translate.c for whether
we were translating code at those addresses.

We can implement this more cleanly using a CPU
unassigned access handler which throws the exception
if the unassigned access is for one of the special addresses.

[PMM:
 * drop the deletion of the "don't interrupt if PC is magic"
   code in arm_v7m_cpu_exec_interrupt() -- this is still
   required
 * don't generate an exception for unassigned accesses
   which aren't to the magic address -- although doing
   this is in theory correct in practice it will break
   currently working guests which rely on the RAZ/WI
   behaviour when they touch devices which we haven't
   modelled.
 * trigger EXCP_EXCEPTION_EXIT on is_exec, not !is_write
