This patch adds new variant (nXS) of DSB memory barrier instruction
available in Armv8.7-a. New nXS variant has different encoding in
comparison with pre Armv8.7-a DSB memory barrier variant thus new
instruction and new operand was added.
DSB memory nXS barrier variant specifies the limitation on the barrier
operation. Allowed values are:
Please note that till now, for barriers, barrier operation was encoded in
4-bit unsigned immediate CRm field (in the range 0 to 15).
For DSB memory nXS barrier variant, barrier operation is a 5-bit unsigned
assembly instruction immediate, encoded in instruction in two bits CRm<3:2>:
CRm<3:2> #imm
00 16
01 20
10 24
11 28
This patch extends current AArch64 barrier instructions with above mapping.
Notable patch changes include:
+ New DSB memory barrier variant encoding for Armv8.7-a.
+ New operand BARRIER_DSB_NXS for above instruction in order to
distinguish between existing and new DSB instruction flavour.
+ New set of DSB nXS barrier options.
+ New instruction inserter and extractor map between instruction
immediate 5-bit value and 2-bit CRm field of the instruction itself (see
FLD_CRm_dsb_nxs).
+ Regeneration of aarch64-[asm|dis|opc]-2.c files.
+ Test cases to cover new instruction assembling and disassembling.

Armv8.7-a flavour please refer to Arm A64 Instruction set documentation
