[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/2] target-arm: Don't try to set ESR IL bit in arm_cpu_do_interrupt_aarch64()

[Peter Maydell]

Remove some incorrect code from arm_cpu_do_interrupt_aarch64()
which attempts to set the IL bit in the syndrome register based
on the value of env->thumb. This is wrong in several ways:
 * IL doesn't indicate Thumb-vs-ARM, it indicates instruction
   length (which may be 16 or 32 for Thumb and is always 32 for ARM)
 * not every syndrome format uses IL like this -- for some IL is
   always set, and for some it is always clear
 * the code is changing esr_el[new_el] even for interrupt entry,
   which is not supposed to modify ESR_ELx at all

Delete the code, and instead rely on the syndrome value in
env->exception.syndrome having already been set up with the
correct value of IL.
