[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 1/4] target-arm: Add CPU property to disable AArch64

[Greg Bellows]

Adds registration and get/set functions for enabling/disabling the AArch64
execution state on AArch64 CPUs.  By default AArch64 execution state is enabled
on AArch64 CPUs, setting the property to off, will disable the execution state.
The below QEMU invocation would have AArch64 execution state disabled.

    $ ./qemu-system-aarch64 -machine virt -cpu cortex-a57,aarch64=off

Also adds stripping of features from CPU model string in acquiring the ARM CPU
by name.

---

v4 -> v5
- Fix error message.

v3 -> v4
- Switch from using strtok to g_strsplit
- Add disablement of aarch64 option if KVM is not enabled.

v1 -> v2
- Scrap the custom CPU feature parsing in favor of using the default CPU
  parsing.
- Add registration of CPU AArch64 property to disable/enable the AArch64
  feature.
