In the interests of reducing the size of this patch set, I'm going to
take patches 1..7, 10, 13..15 into target-arm.next. (Alex, I know
you had a nit about changing the type of a variable in patch 4 but
I think I'd rather just take the patchset rather than do another
round with it for that.)

The target-arm.next branch (which rebases!) with those patches is at:

https://git.linaro.org/people/peter.maydell/qemu-arm.git target-arm.next

I expect I'll make a pullreq either tomorrow or more likely Thursday.

thanks
