This is a bug fix for aarch64. At present, we have branches using
the 32-bit (translate.c) versions of cpu_[NZCV]F, but we set the flags
using the 64-bit (translate-a64.c) versions of cpu_[NZCV]F. From
the view of the TCG code generator, these are unrelated variables.
The bug is hard to see because we currently only read these variables
from branches, and upon reaching a branch TCG will first spill live
variables and then reload the arguments of the branch. Since the
32-bit versions were never live until reaching the branch, we'd re-read
the data that had just been spilled from the 64-bit versions.
There is currently no such problem with the cpu_exclusive_* variables,
but there's no point in tempting fate.
