zicfiss protects shadow stack using new page table encodings PTE.W=1,
PTE.R=0 and PTE.X=0. This encoding is reserved if zicfiss is not
implemented or if shadow stack are not enabled.
Loads on shadow stack memory are allowed while stores to shadow stack
memory leads to access faults. Shadow stack accesses to RO memory
leads to store page fault.

To implement special nature of shadow stack memory where only selected
stores (shadow stack stores from sspush) have to be allowed while rest
of regular stores disallowed, new MMU TLB index is created for shadow
stack.

Why is it a PMP error if it's a shadow stack page?

While responding to your question, I noticed there is a bug here. Its a leftover from
previous patches where I was promoting shadow stack loads to stores. No need to check
`access_type == MMU_DATA_STORE` because we store unwind information as part of tcg
compile.

Will fix it.

A shadow stack page is readable by regular loads.
We are making sure of that in `case PTE_W` in above switch case.
But shadow stack page is not writeable via regular stores. And must raise
access fault. return code `TRANSLATE_PMP_FAIL` is translated to access fault
while raising fault.

Ah, ok. It's worth commenting that we are returning TRANSLATE_PMP_FAIL
as that will be translated to an access fault
