You've removed the helpful comment explaining why this wierdness exists. 
Please put it back.

A comment in cpu.h explaining what cpsr_vmstate is for would also be nice.
Specifically it's a hack[1] to transfer data between the pre_save/post_load 
hooks and the vmstate machinery.  IMO "vmstate" is a sufficiently generic term 
that it could be confused with some actual cpu register, especially once we 
get round to implementing the hypervisor extensions.

[1] Maybe a necessary hack, but still a wart from requiring static table 
driven vmstate descriptions.
