Merge existing correctness fixes

Registered by Michael Hope

Gather the various ARM-related qemu code-correctness fixes, test and review them and submit them upstream.

Sources of these fixes:
 * the qemu-maemo tree
 * possibly other trees like android (to investigate)
 * upstream's mailing list
 * patches written to fix problems found by our testing

Whiteboard

Some work items have prefixes:
meego - patches from meego tree
samsung - ditto, samsung platform emulator
neon-list - issues raised by internal ARM users, mostly neon
valgrind - issues found by running tests from valgrind's source tree
Note that items here are marked 'DONE' when a patch is submitted upstream, although it may then take up to a few weeks for it to actually be committed to qemu git. The queue of pending patches is tracked at https://wiki.linaro.org/PeterMaydell/QemuPatchStatus

A few items removed from this blueprint:
 * meego - Cortex-A8r2 support -- this is really only (maybe) needed for omap3 and will be considered under omap3 upstreaming
 * meego - trustzone -- this is a missing feature, not a correctness issue; the plan is to do a proper implementation under its own blueprint next cycle
 * VCVT exception flags is postponed because it is tricky (requires fixing softfloat bugs) and not very important

(?)
