dc83d23425 tests: Add support for testing KVM-based CPUs
This changeset adds support for initializing a KVM VM in the
BaseSystem test class and adds the following methods in run.py:

require_file -- Test if a file exists and abort/skip if not.
require_kvm -- Test if KVM support has been compiled into gem5 (i.e.,
	       BaseKvmCPU exists) and the KVM device exists on the
	       host.

5fb00e1df6 tests: Add CPU switching tests
This changeset adds a set of tests that stress the CPU switching
code. It adds the following test configurations:

 * tsunami-switcheroo-full -- Alpha system (atomic, timing, O3)
 * realview-switcheroo-atomic -- ARM system (atomic<->atomic)
 * realview-switcheroo-timing -- ARM system (timing<->timing)
 * realview-switcheroo-o3 -- ARM system (O3<->O3)
 * realview-switcheroo-full -- ARM system (atomic, timing, O3)

Reference data is provided for the 10.linux-boot test case. All of the
tests trigger a CPU switch once per millisecond during the boot
process.

The in-order CPU model was not included in any of the tests as it does
not support CPU handover.

e65de3f5ca config: Do not use hardcoded physmem in fs script
This patch generalises the address range resolution for the I/O cache
and I/O bridge such that they do not assume a single memory. The patch
involves adding a parameter to the system which is then defined based
on the memories that are to be visible from the I/O subsystem, whether
behind a cache or a bridge.

The change is needed to allow interleaved memory controllers in the
system.

f32f372455 tests: Create base classes to encapsulate common test configurations
Most of the test cases currently contain a large amount of duplicated
boiler plate code. This changeset introduces a set of classes that
encapsulates most of the functionality when setting up a test
configuration.

The following base classes are introduced:
* BaseSystem - Basic system configuration that can be used for both
               SE and FS simulation.

* BaseFSSystem - Basic FS configuration uni-processor and multi-processor
                 configurations.

* BaseFSSystemUniprocessor - Basic FS configuration for uni-processor
                             configurations. This is provided as a way
			     to make existing test cases backwards
			     compatible.

Architecture specific implementations are provided for ARM, Alpha, and
X86.
