Raw writes to PMCNTENCLR and PMCNTENCLR_EL0 incorrectly used their
default write function, which clears written bits instead of writes the
raw value.
PMINTENCLR and PMINTENCLR_EL1 are similar registers, but they instead
had ARM_CP_NO_RAW. Commit 7a0e58fa64 ("target-arm: Split NO_MIGRATE
into ALIAS and NO_RAW") sugguests ARM_CP_ALIAS should be used instead of
ARM_CP_NO_RAW in such a case:
> We currently mark ARM coprocessor/system register definitions with

These registers fall in category 1 (ARM_CP_ALIAS), not category 2
(ARM_CP_NO_RAW).
ARM_CP_NO_RAW also has another undesired side effect that hides
registers from GDB.
Properly set raw write functions and drop the ARM_CP_NO_RAW flag from
PMINTENCLR and PMINTENCLR_EL1; this fixes GDB/KVM state synchronization
of PMCNTENCLR and PMCNTENCLR_EL0, and exposes all these four registers
to GDB.
It is not necessary to add ARM_CP_ALIAS to these registers because the
flag is already set.
