Transactional Memory was removed from the architecture in ISA v3.1. For
threads running in P8/P9 compatibility mode on P10 a synthetic TM
implementation is provided. In this implementation, tbegin. always sets
cr0 eq meaning the abort handler is always called. This is not an issue
as users of TM are expected to have a fallback non transactional way to
make forward progress in the abort handler. The TEXASR indicates if a
transaction failure is due to a synthetic implementation.
Some of the TM self tests need a non-degenerate TM implementation for
their testing to be meaningful so check for a synthetic implementation
and skip the test if so.

This test creates some threads, which write to TM SPRs, and then makes
sure the registers maintain the correct values across context switches
and contention with other threads.
But currently the test finishes almost instantaneously, which reduces
the chance of it hitting an interesting condition.
So increase the number of loops, so it runs a bit longer, though still
less than 2s on a Power8.

This test tries to set affinity to CPUs that don't exist, especially
if the set of online CPUs doesn't start at 0.
But there's no real reason for it to use setaffinity in the first
place, it's just trying to create lots of threads to cause contention.
So drop the setaffinity entirely.

Test tm-tmspr might exit before all threads stop executing, because it just
waits for the very last thread to join before proceeding/exiting.
This patch makes sure that all threads that were created will join before
proceeding/exiting.
This patch also guarantees that the amount of threads being created is equal
to thread_num.

Testing that the TM SPRs are behaving the way they should. Uses more
threads than cpus to see if the following register values persist with
context switching:
- the FS (failure summary) flag in TEXASR
- TFIAR and TFHAR
