[PATCH v1 03/21] target/arm: add BQL to do_interrupt and cpu_exec_interrupt

[Robert Foley]

This is part of a series of changes to remove the implied BQL
from the common code of cpu_handle_interrupt and
cpu_handle_exception.  As part of removing the implied BQL
from the common code, we are pushing the BQL holding
down into the per-arch implementation functions of
do_interrupt and cpu_exec_interrupt.

The purpose of this set of changes is to set the groundwork
so that an arch could move towards removing
the BQL from the cpu_handle_interrupt/exception paths.

This approach was suggested by Paolo Bonzini.
For reference, here are two key posts in the discussion, explaining
the reasoning/benefits of this approach.
