Our implementation of writes to the APSR for M-profile via the MSR
instruction was badly broken.
First and worst, we had the sense wrong on the test of bit 2 of the
SYSm field -- this is supposed to request an APSR write if bit 2 is 0
but we were doing it if bit 2 was 1. This bug was introduced in
commit 58117c9bb4, so hasn't been in a QEMU release.
Secondly, the choice of exactly which parts of APSR should be written
is defined by bits in the 'mask' field. We were not passing these
through from instruction decode, making it impossible to check them
in the helper.
Pass the mask bits through from the instruction decode to the helper
function and process them appropriately; fix the wrong sense of the
SYSm bit 2 check.
Invalid mask values and invalid combinations of mask and register
number are UNPREDICTABLE; we choose to treat them as if the mask
values were valid.
