I guess going forward we want to base the base DisasContext to gen_io_start so we can flip a bit and then assert we don't start a new instruction having already handled an IO instruction which should have been the last one. > * the doc comment for ARM_CP_IO doesn't need to mention > gen_io_end() any more > > Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell <peter.mayd...@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Alex Bennée <alex.ben...@linaro.org> -- Alex Bennée
