Merge remote-tracking branch 'remotes/pmaydell/tags/pull-target-arm-20201110' into staging
target-arm queue:
* hw/arm/Kconfig: ARM_V7M depends on PTIMER
* Minor coding style fixes
* docs: add some notes on the sbsa-ref machine
* hw/arm/virt: Remove dependency on Cortex-A15 MPCore peripherals
* target/arm: Fix neon VTBL/VTBX for len > 1
* hw/arm/armsse: Correct expansion MPC interrupt lines
* hw/misc/stm32f2xx_syscfg: Remove extraneous IRQ
* hw/arm/nseries: Remove invalid/unnecessary n8x0_uart_setup()
* hw/arm/musicpal: Don't connect two qemu_irqs directly to the same input
* hw/arm/musicpal: Only use qdev_get_gpio_in() when necessary
* hw/arm/nseries: Check return value from load_image_targphys()
* tests/qtest/npcm7xx_rng-test: count runs properly
* target/arm/translate-neon.c: Handle VTBL UNDEF case before VFP access check

It is a static system that +reports a very minimal DT to the firmware for non-discoverable +information about components affected by the qemu command line (i.e. +cpus and memory).
