t32_simulate_ldr_literal() can be run without an instruction slot, so it
should be using DECODE_SIMULATEX instead of DECODE_EMULATEX.

The kernel doesn't currently support VFP or Neon code, and probing of

We reject probing of load/store exclusive instructions because any
emulation routine could never succeed in gaining exclusive access as the
exception framework clears the exclusivity monitor when a probes
breakpoint is hit.

For hints which may have observable effects, like SEV (send event), we
use kprobe_emulate_none which emulates the hint by executing the
original instruction.
For NOP we simulate the instruction using kprobe_simulate_nop, which
does nothing. As probes execute with interrupts disabled this is also
used for hints which may block for an indefinite time, like WFE (wait
for event).

These are very rare and/or problematic to emulate so we will take the
easy option and disallow probing them (as does the existing ARM
implementation).
Rejecting these instructions doesn't actually require any entries in the
decoding table as it is the default case for instructions which aren't
found.

We previously changed the behaviour of probes so that conditional
instructions don't fire when the condition isn't met. For ARM branches,
and Thumb branches in IT blocks, this means they don't fire if the
branch isn't taken.
For consistency, we implement the same for Thumb conditional branch
instructions. This involves setting up insn_check_cc to point to the
relevant condition checking function. As the emulation routine is only
called when this condition passes, it doesn't need to check again and
can unconditionally update PC.

The normal Thumb singlestepping routine updates the IT state after
calling the instruction handler. We don't what this to happen after the
IT instruction simulation sets the IT state, therefore we need to
provide a custom singlestep routine.

These instructions are equivalent to
stmdb sp!,{r0-r7,lr}
ldmdb sp!,{r0-r7,pc}
and we emulate them by transforming them into the 32-bit Thumb
instructions
stmdb r9!,{r0-r7,r8}
ldmdb r9!,{r0-r7,r8}
This is simpler, and almost certainly executes faster, than writing
simulation functions.

Most of these instructions only operate on the low registers R0-R7
so they can make use of t16_emulate_loregs_rwflags.

These data-processing instructions operate on the full range of CPU
registers, so to simulate them we have to modify the registers used
by the instruction. We can't make use of the decoding table framework to
do this because the registers aren't encoded cleanly in separate
nibbles, therefore we need a custom decode function.

These instructions only operate on the low registers R0-R7, therefore
it is possible to emulate them by executing the original instruction
unaltered if we restore and save these registers. This is what
t16_emulate_loregs does.
Some of these instructions don't update the PSR when they execute in an
IT block, so there are two flavours of emulation functions:
t16_emulate_loregs_{noit}rwflags

When a probe fires we must single-step the instruction which was
replaced by a breakpoint. As the steps to do this vary between ARM and
Thumb instructions we need a way to customise single-stepping.
This is done by adding a new hook called insn_singlestep to
arch_specific_insn which is initialised by the instruction decoding
functions.
These single-step hooks must update PC and call the instruction handler.
For Thumb instructions an additional step of updating ITSTATE is needed.
We do this after calling the handler because some handlers will need to
test if they are running in an IT block.
