[Qemu-devel] [PULL 02/21] target/arm: v8M MPU should use background region as default, not always

[Peter Maydell]

The "background region" for a v8M MPU is a default which will be used
(if enabled, and if the access is privileged) if the access does
not match any specific MPU region. We were incorrectly using it
always (by putting the condition at the wrong nesting level). This
meant that we would always return the default background permissions
rather than the correct permissions for a specific region, and also
that we would not return the right information in response to a
TT instruction.

Move the check for the background region to the same place in the
logic as the equivalent v8M MPUCheck() pseudocode puts it.
This in turn means we must adjust the condition we use to detect
matches in multiple regions to avoid false-positives.
