5e6d4577de Change the TT_FAST hash function for from "insn_address >> 2" to
"insn_address >> 1".  The former is appropriate for ARM code, where
all insns are 4-sized and 4-aligned, but not for Thumb code, where the
minimum size and alignment is 2.  The old scheme happened to work for
Thumb (indeed, any hash function would), but caused huge amounts of
conflict misses in the fast cache for some programs.

The change has been observed to reduce conflict misses by up to 100
times, and in some cases, improves performance significantly for Thumb
code.  Performance of ARM code is unchanged or possibly a bit worse.

de04801515 Merge from branches/THUMB: rack renaming of guest_R15 to guest_R15T.
Also, add extra FPSCR masking for FPSCR invariant state sanity checks.

e9de458500 Merge from branches/ARM, all parts of the ARM-Linux port except for
the changes to do with reading and using ELF and DWARF3 info.
This breaks all targets except amd64-linux and x86-linux.
