target/arm: Implement FEAT_IDST
The Armv8.4 feature FEAT_IDST specifies that exceptions generated by read accesses to the feature ID space should report a syndrome code of 0x18 (EC_SYSTEMREGISTERTRAP) rather than 0x00 (EC_UNCATEGORIZED). The feature ID space is defined to be: op0 == 3, op1 == {0,1,3}, CRn == 0, CRm == {0-7}, op2 == {0-7} In our implementation we might return the EC_UNCATEGORIZED syndrome value for a system register access in four cases: * no reginfo struct in the hashtable * cp_access_ok() fails (ie ri->access doesn't permit the access) * ri->accessfn returns CP_ACCESS_TRAP_UNCATEGORIZED at runtime * ri->type includes ARM_CP_RAISES_EXC, and the readfn raises an UNDEF exception at runtime We have very few regdefs that set ARM_CP_RAISES_EXC, and none of them are in the feature ID space. (In the unlikely event that any are added in future they would need to take care of setting the correct syndrome themselves.) This patch deals with the other three cases, and enables FEAT_IDST for AArch64 -cpu max.
