Giacomo Travaglini f191901bd8 arch-arm: Unify VLdmStm behaviour when reg out of index
The generic VLdmStm class (modelling A32 VLDM/VSTM) is handling a wrong
register list in a inconsistent way. Some instructions are opting
for being decoded as Unknown, while others handle it inside the
macro instruction constructor by manually adjusting the reglist.

Those are two valid implementation of the CONSTRAINT UNPREDICTABLE
behaviour (1 and 3):

"If regs > 16 || (d+regs) > 32 , then one of the following behaviors must
occur:
1) The instruction is UNDEFINED .
2) The instruction executes as NOP .
3)  One or more of the SIMD and floating-point registers are UNKNOWN . If
the instruction specifies writeback, the base register becomes UNKNOWN .
This behavior does not affect any general-purpose registers."

This patch unfies the behaviour by always opting for option 1) over 3)

This is the gem5 simulator.

The main website can be found at http://www.gem5.org

A good starting point is http://www.gem5.org/Introduction, and for
more information about building the simulator and getting started
please see http://www.gem5.org/Documentation and
http://www.gem5.org/Tutorials.

To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang,
Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, SWIG, zlib, m4,
and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback
support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/Dependencies for more details
concerning the minimum versions of the aforementioned tools.

Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons
build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of ALPHA, ARM, NULL, MIPS,
POWER, SPARC, or X86. This will build an optimized version of the gem5
binary (gem5.opt) for the the specified architecture. See
http://www.gem5.org/Build_System for more details and options.

With the simulator built, have a look at
http://www.gem5.org/Running_gem5 for more information on how to use
gem5.

The basic source release includes these subdirectories:
   - configs: example simulation configuration scripts
   - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5
   - src: source code of the gem5 simulator
   - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems
   - tests: regression tests
   - util: useful utility programs and files

To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled system firmware
(console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk
images. Please see the gem5 download page for these items at
http://www.gem5.org/Download

If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org

Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
