The LDT/STT (load/store unprivileged) instruction decode was using
the wrong MMU index value. This meant that instead of these insns
being "always access as if user-mode regardless of current privilege"
they were "always access as if kernel-mode regardless of current
privilege". This went unnoticed because AArch64 Linux doesn't use
these instructions.

I'm not counting this as a security issue because I'm assuming
nobody treats TCG guests as a security boundary (certainly I
would not recommend doing so...)
