This patch avoids compiling ALPHA six times as part of running
'util/regress', and instead relis on NULL with different protocols to
run the rubytest. All we need is the memory system, so there is really
no need to compile the ISA over and over again.
The one downside is the removal of running 'hello' for the variuos
ALPHA and protocol combinations, but if this is a concern we should
rather beef up the synthetic tests for the variuos protocols.

This update includes the changes to whole-line writes, the refinement
of Read to ReadClean and ReadShared, the introduction of CleanEvict
for snoop-filter tracking, and updates to the DRAM command scheduler
for bank-group-aware scheduling.
Needless to say, almost every regression is affected.
This patch removes the three MIPS and SPARC regressions that use the
deprecated InOrderCPU.
This is the first step in completely removing the code from the tree,
avoiding confusion, and focusing all development efforts on the
MinorCPU. Brave new world.
Changes due to speculative execution of an unaligned PC, introduction
of TLB stats, changes and re-work of the prefetcher, and the
introduction of rank-wise refresh in the DRAM controller.
This patch bumps the stats to reflect the addition of the snoop filter
and snoop stats, the change from bus to crossbar, and the updates to
the ARM regressions that are now using a different CPU and cache
configuration. Lastly, some minor changes are expected due to the
activation cleanup of the CPUs.
