/**
* CheckerCPU class. Dynamically verifies instructions as they are
* completed by making sure that the instruction and its results match
* the independent execution of the benchmark inside the checker. The
* checker verifies instructions in order, regardless of the order in
* which instructions complete. There are certain results that can
* not be verified, specifically the result of a store conditional or
* the values of uncached accesses. In these cases, and with
* instructions marked as "IsUnverifiable", the checker assumes that
* the value from the main CPU's execution is correct and simply
* copies that value. It provides a CheckerExecContext (see
* checker/exec_context.hh) that provides hooks for updating the
* Checker's state through any ExecContext accesses. This allows the
* checker to be able to correctly verify instructions, even with
* external accesses to the ExecContext that change state.
