When the initial SP is loaded from the vector table on ARMv7M systems the two
least significant bits are ignored as the stack is always aligned at a four byte
boundary (see ARM DDI 0403C, B1.4.1 and B1.5.5). So far QEMU did not ignore
these bits leading to a stack alignment inconsitent with real hardware for
binaries that rely on this behaviour. This patch fixes this issue by masking the
two least significant bits when loading the SP.
