[Qemu-arm] [PATCH v3 1/7] target/arm64: properly handle DBGVR RESS bits


From: Alex Bennée
Subject: [Qemu-arm] [PATCH v3 1/7] target/arm64: properly handle DBGVR RESS bits
Date: Fri, 9 Nov 2018 15:21:13 +0000

This only fails with some (broken) versions of gdb but we should
treat the top bits of DBGBVR as RESS. Properly sign extend QEMU's
reference copy of dbgbvr and also update the register descriptions in
the comment.

v2
  - sanitise register on insertion
  - update reference description
v3
  - fix bogus sextract64
