[Qemu-arm] [PATCH] target-arm: Correctly handle 'sub pc, pc, 1' for ARMv6

[Peter Maydell]

In the ARM v6 architecture, 'sub pc, pc, 1' is not an interworking
branch, so the computed new value is written to r15 as a normal
value. The architecture says that in this case, bits [1:0] of
the value written must be ignored if we are in ARM mode (or
bit [0] ignored if in Thumb mode); this is a change from the
ARMv4/v5 specification that behaviour is UNPREDICTABLE.
Use the correct mask on the PC value when doing a non-interworking
store to PC.

A popular library used on RaspberryPi uses this instruction
as part of a trick to determine whether it is running on
ARMv6 or ARMv7, and we were mishandling the sequence.
