[PATCH qemu v3 0/2] target/arm: Improve user-mode compatibility with JITs

[~jhogberg]

The test cases have been changed in v3 to fix some issues pointed out in
code review. The main change is that the tests no longer naively copy C
code around, opting instead to have hard-coded binary payloads. Given
the small amount of code I found that the workarounds for position-
independence and figuring out the actual code length were at least as
ugly, but that's only my preference, please tell me if you'd prefer
something different.

----

When running in user-mode QEMU currently fails to emulate JITs that
use dual-mapped code to get around W^X restrictions, where one mapping
is writable and one is executable. As it has no way of knowing that a
write to the writable region is reflected in the executable one, it
fails to invalidate previously translated code which leads to a crash
at best.

(Note that system mode is unaffected as the softmmu is fully aware of
what is going on.)

This patch series catches changes to dual-mapped code by honoring the
cache management instructions required to make things work on actual
hardware.
