arm: Don't crash if user tries to use a Cortex-M CPU without an NVIC
The Cortex-M CPU and its NVIC are two intimately intertwined parts of
the same hardware; it is not possible to use one without the other.
Unfortunately a lot of our board models don't do any sanity checking
on the CPU type the user asks for, so a command line like
qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb -cpu cortex-m3
will create an M3 without an NVIC, and coredump immediately.
In the other direction, trying a non-M-profile CPU in an M-profile
board won't blow up, but doesn't do anything useful either:
qemu-system-arm -M lm3s6965evb -cpu arm926
Add some checking in the NVIC and CPU realize functions that the
user isn't trying to use an NVIC without an M-profile CPU or
an M-profile CPU without an NVIC, so we can produce a helpful
error message rather than a core dump.
