hw/mips/mips_jazz: Override do_transaction_failed hook
The MIPS Jazz ('magnum' and 'pica61') boards have some code which overrides the CPU's do_unassigned_access hook, so they can intercept it and not raise exceptions on data accesses to invalid addresses, only for instruction fetches. We want to switch MIPS over to using the do_transaction_failed hook instead, so add an intercept for that as well, and make the board code install whichever hook the CPU is actually using. Once we've changed the CPU implementation we can remove the redundant code for the old hook. Note: I am suspicious that the behaviour as implemented here may not be what the hardware really does. It was added in commit 54e755588cf1e90f0b14 to restore the behaviour that was broken by commit c658b94f6e8c206c59d. But prior to commit c658b94f6e8c206c59d every MIPS board generated exceptions for instruction access to invalid addresses but not for data accesses; and other boards, notably Malta, were fixed by making all invalid accesses behave as reads-as-zero (see the call to empty_slot_init() in mips_malta_init()). Hardware that raises exceptions for instruction access and not data access seems to me to be an unlikely design, and it's possible that the right way to emulate this is to make the Jazz boards do what we did with Malta (or some variation of that). Nonetheless, since I don't have access to real hardware to test against I have taken the approach of "make QEMU continue to behave the same way it did before this commit". I have updated the comment to correct the parts that are no longer accurate and note that the hardware might behave differently. The test case for the need for the hook-hijacking is in https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1245924 That BIOS will boot OK either with this overriding of both hooks, or with a simple "global memory region to ignore bad accesses of all types", so it doesn't provide evidence either way, unfortunately.
