[PATCH] pl031: Update last RTCLR value on write in case it's read back

[PATCH] pl031: Update last RTCLR value on write in case it's read back

[Jessica Clarke]

The PL031 allows you to read RTCLR, which is meant to give you the last
value written. PL031State has an lr field which is used when reading
from RTCLR, and is present in the VM migration state, but we never
actually update it, so it always reads as its initial 0 value.

Thanks for the patch -- looks like this bug has been present since
the first version of the pl031 emulation was added back in 2007...
Applied to target-arm.next.
