Define prepare_selector(), read_protection_region() and

Enable pr_{get/set}_{base/limit}(), region_is_valid() for arm32.
Enable pr_of_addr() for arm32.

Is it using too ifdefs in your opinion that would benefit the split you do in 
v3?

Yes. However, I understand that this is subjective. I need your and Michal/Julien to have an opinion here whether to go with the split (which means some amount of code duplication) or introduce if-defs. I will be happy to proceed as per your opinions.
