I was getting very confused about the duplication of state. Perhaps we
should just get rid of env->spsr and use helpers that understand the
banking?
Doesn't seem worth changing the current working code to something
else that's strictly less efficient... spsr is by no means the
only banked-by-mode register, and it works just like all the others.
Fair enough. I just wanted to make it clear it was a cached value for
the benefit of TCG.
