I'm not sure I agree with this. The cpu->as is handy for
the large number of targets which only use one AddressSpace:
which is everything except arm and x86 right now.

Targets that use multiple address spaces need to be careful
about which AS they use by definition. Unless we have a
track record of code in those targets carelessly using
cpu->as when it should do something else, I'm not sure
that there's a benefit that makes it worth making the
"use the one and only AS this CPU will ever have" more awkward.
