According to "ARMv7-M Architecture Reference Manual" issue D section

Register 3, SHPR3".
This would fix the specific issue of not being able to do byte or halfword
accesses to the SHPR registers, but it doesn't do anything about other
byte-accessible registers like the CFSR.

The right fix for this is for armv7m_nvic to expose a memory region for
the system control space which implements byte and halfword accesses,
and not to try to indirect everything through a single GIC region.

I am primary a Qemu user and fixed the bugs only as far as it was necessary to run my test suites. I used the surrounding code as a reference. Maybe I find some time in the next months to clean this up.
