The code for handling the reset level count in the Resettable code
has two issues:
The reset count is only decremented for the 1->0 case. This means
that if there's ever a nested reset that takes the count to 2 then it
will never again be decremented. Eventually the count will exceed
the '50' limit in resettable_phase_enter() and QEMU will trip over
the assertion failure. The repro case in issue 1266 is an example of
this that happens now the SCSI subsystem uses three-phase reset.
Secondly, the count is decremented only after the exit phase handler
is called. Moving the reset count decrement from "just after" to
"just before" calling the exit phase handler allows
resettable_is_in_reset() to return false during the handler
execution.
This simplifies reset handling in resettable devices. Typically, a
function that updates the device state will just need to read the
current reset state and not anymore treat the "in a reset-exit
transition" as a special case.
Note that the semantics change to the *_is_in_reset() functions
will have no effect on the current codebase, because only two
devices (hw/char/cadence_uart.c and hw/misc/zynq_sclr.c) currently
call those functions, and in neither case do they do it from the
device's exit phase methed.

FEAT_E0PD adds new bits E0PD0 and E0PD1 to TCR_EL1, which allow the
OS to forbid EL0 access to half of the address space. Since this is
an EL0-specific variation on the existing TCR_ELx.{EPD0,EPD1}, we can
implement it entirely in aa64_va_parameters().
This requires moving the existing regime_is_user() to internals.h
so that the code in helper.c can get at it.

This work is based on:
https://patchew.org/QEMU/20220317125534.38706-1-philippe.mathieu.daude@gmail.com/
Simplify the initialization dance by running qemu_init() in the main
thread before the Cocoa event loop starts. The secondary thread only
runs only qemu_main_loop() and qemu_cleanup().
This fixes a case where addRemovableDevicesMenuItems() calls
qmp_query_block() while expecting the main thread to still hold
the BQL.
Overriding the code after calling qemu_init() is done by dynamically
replacing a function pointer variable, qemu_main when initializing
ui/cocoa, which unifies the static implementation of main() for
builds with ui/cocoa and ones without ui/cocoa.

The architectural feature FEAT_ETS (Enhanced Translation
Synchronization) is a set of tightened guarantees about memory
ordering involving translation table walks:
* if memory access RW1 is ordered-before memory access RW2 then it
is also ordered-before any translation table walk generated by RW2
that generates a translation fault, address size fault or access
fault
* TLB maintenance on non-exec-permission translations is guaranteed
complete after a DSB (ie it does not need the context
synchronization event that you have to have if you don’t have
FEAT_ETS)
For QEMU’s implementation we don’t reorder translation table walk
accesses, and we guarantee to finish the TLB maintenance as soon as
the TLB op is done (the tlb_flush functions will complete at the end
of the TLB, and TLB ops always end the TB because they’re sysreg
writes).
So we’re already compliant and all we need to do is say so in the ID
registers for the 'max' CPU.

The note about the removal of '-soundhw' has been accidentally added
to the section of removed "linux-user mode CPUs" ... it should reside
in the section about removed "System emulator command line arguments"
instead.
Fixes: 039a68373c ("introduce -audio as a replacement for -soundhw")

Since 30b5707c26 (qom: Remove module_obj_name parameter from
OBJECT_DECLARE* macros) we don't need the additional two parameters.
Fix the documentation.

Commit cf60ccc330 ("cutils: Introduce bundle mechanism") introduced
a Python script to populate a bundle directory using os.symlink() to
point to the binaries in the pc-bios directory of the source tree.
Commit 882084a04a ("datadir: Use bundle mechanism") removed previous
logic in pc-bios/meson.build to create a link/copy of pc-bios binaries
in the build tree so os.symlink() is the way to go.
However os.symlink() may fail [1] on Windows if an unprivileged Windows
user started the QEMU build process, which results in QEMU executables
generated in the build tree not able to load the default BIOS/firmware
images due to symbolic links not present in the bundle directory.
This commits updates the documentation by adding such caveats for users
who want to build QEMU on the Windows platform.

Let's use more inclusive language here and avoid terms
