[PATCH] Use uint64_t for SVE VQ


Previously VQ was of type long. Using uint64_t ensures it always matches the
same type as the VG register.
Note that in the Linux kernel, VQ is 16bits. We cast it up to 64bits
immediately after reading to ensure we always use the same type throughout
the code.

This spatch was spun off Pedro's review here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2018-05/msg00862.html

Tested with other SVE patches under aarch64 SVE emulation.

2018-06-01  Alan Hayward  <alan.hayward@arm.com>

	* aarch64-tdep.c (aarch64_read_description): Use long for VQ.
	* aarch64-tdep.h (aarch64_read_description): Likewise.
	* arch/aarch64.c (aarch64_create_target_description): Likewise.
	* arch/aarch64.h (aarch64_create_target_description): Likewise.
	* features/aarch64-sve.c (create_feature_aarch64_sve): Likewise.
	* nat/aarch64-sve-linux-ptrace.c(aarch64_sve_get_vq): Likewise.
	* nat/aarch64-sve-linux-ptrace.h (aarch64_sve_get_vq): Likewise.
