v2 cover Fix single step for traps

When single stepping a trapped/emulated instruction, the instruction not being actually executed, the PE ends up single stepping the instruction we return to after ERET-ing from the trap.

First patch is just to avoid raw values when using single stepping registers/bits.
Patches 2 fixes the issue for the kernel.

Changes since v1:
* Rename arm64_skip_trapped_instr to arm64_setup_next_instr
* Add defines for AARCH32 and Thumb instruction sizes
* Drop previous KVM patch, Alex Benn?e has a better approach

Cheers,

Julien Thierry

PATCH v2 2/2 arm64: Fix single stepping in kernel traps

In reply to Julien Thierry

Software Step exception is missing after stepping a trapped instruction.

Ensure SPSR.SS gets set to 0 after emulating/skipping a trapped instruction before doing ERET.

Can you use user_fastforward_single_step instead, like we do for the signal handling path?

I guess we are always fast forwarding on the current task. So yes, I can use that.
