In helper.c the expression
(env->uncached_cpsr & CPSR_M) != CPSR_USER
is always true; the right hand side was supposed to be ARM_CPU_MODE_USR
(an error in commit cb01d391).
Since the incorrect expression was always true, this just meant that
commit cb01d391 had no effect.
However simply changing the RHS here would reveal a logic error: if
the mode is USR we wish to completely ignore the attempt to set the
mode bits, which means that we must clear the CPSR_M bits from mask
to avoid the uncached_cpsr bits being updated at the end of the
function.
Move the condition into the correct place in the code, fix its RHS
constant, and add a comment about the fact that we must be doing a
gdbstub write if we're in user mode.
