    arm64: Mask non-debug exceptions when single stepping
    
    When an exception is pending when single stepping we may execute the
    handler for that exception rather than the single step handler. This
    could cause the scheduler to fire to run a new thread. This will mean
    we single step to a new thread causing unexpected results.
    
    Handle this by masking non-debug exceptions. This will cause issues
    when stepping over instructions that access the DAIF values so future
    work is needed to handle these cases, but for most code this now works
    as expected.
