[PATCH 0/2] target/arm: Load correct half of 64-bit fields

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

This patchset fixes a bug where on a big-endian 64-bit host the
guest would crash immediately when it did an ERET. This happens
because when we load the new PC value from CPUARMState::esr_el[2]
we do a 32-bit load even though the struct field is 64 bits.
So on 64-bit BE we use the wrong half of the register.

Patch 1 defines a new macro to load the low 32 bits from a
64-bit field, and uses it in the two places where we got this
wrong. Patch 2 adds some compile-time assertions to the
existing load_cpu_field() and store_cpu_field() macros that
catch inadvertent uses on struct fields of the wrong size.

This fix is necessary to be able to run the avocado tests for
the orangepi on a 64-bit BE system.

thanks
