[RFC,v5,00/22] target/arm: Implement FEAT_NMI and FEAT_GICv3_NMI

This patch set implements FEAT_NMI and FEAT_GICv3_NMI for armv8. These
introduce support for a new category of interrupts in the architecture
which we can use to provide NMI like functionality.

There are two modes for using this FEAT_NMI. When PSTATE.ALLINT or
PSTATE.SP & SCTLR_ELx.SCTLR_SPINTMASK is set, any entry to ELx causes all
interrupts including those with superpriority to be masked on entry to ELn
until the mask is explicitly removed by software or hardware. PSTATE.ALLINT
can be managed by software using the new register control ALLINT.ALLINT.
Independent controls are provided for this feature at each EL, usage at EL1
should not disrupt EL2 or EL3.

I have tested it with the following linux patches which try to support
FEAT_NMI in linux kernel:

In the test, SGI, PPI and SPI interrupts can all be set to have super priority
to be converted to a hardware NMI interrupt. The SGI is tested with kernel
IPI as NMI framework, softlockup, hardlockup and kgdb test cases, and the PPI
interrupt is tested with "perf top" command with hardware NMI enabled, and
the SPI interrupt is tested with a custom test module, in which NMI interrupts
can be received and sent normally.

However, the Virtual NMI(VNMI) has not been tested.

Changes in v5:
- Remove the comment for ALLINT in cpu.h.
- Merge allint_check() to msr_i_allint to clear the ALLINT MSR (immediate)
  implementation.
- Rename msr_i_allint() to msr_set_allint_el1() to make it clearer.
- Drop the & 1 in trans_MSR_i_ALLINT().
- Add Reviewed-by.

Changes in v4:
- Handle VNMI within the CPU and the GIC.
- Keep PSTATE.ALLINT in env->pstate but not env->allint.
- Fix the ALLINT MSR (immediate) decodetree implementation.
- Accept NMI unconditionally for arm_cpu_has_work() but add comment.
- Improve nmi mask in arm_excp_unmasked().
- Make the GICR_INMIR0 and GICD_INMIR implementation more clearer.
- Improve ICC_NMIAR1_EL1 implementation
- Extract gicv3_get_priority() to avoid priority code repetition.
- Add Reviewed-by.

Changes in v3:
- Remove the FIQ NMI.
- Adjust the patches Sequence.
- Reomve the patch "Set pstate.ALLINT in arm_cpu_reset_hold".
- Check whether support FEAT_NMI and FEAT_GICv3 for FEAT_GICv3_NMI.
- With CPU_INTERRUPT_NMI, both CPSR_I and ISR_IS must be set.
- Not include NMI logic when FEAT_NMI or SCTLR_ELx.NMI not enabled.
- Refator nmi mask in arm_excp_unmasked().
- Add VNMI definitions, add HCRX_VINMI and HCRX_VFNMI support in HCRX_EL2.
- Add Reviewed-by and Acked-by.
- Update the commit message.

Changes in v2:
- Break up the patches so that each one does only one thing.
- Remove the command line option and just implement it in "max" cpu.
