Make interrupts use the new wakeup method, and pull all of the interrupt
stuff into the cpu base class so that only the wakeup code needs to be updated.
I tried to make wakeup, wakeCPU, and the various other mechanisms for waking
and sleeping a little more sane, but I couldn't understand why the statistics
were changing the way they were. Maybe we'll try again some day.
the primary identifier for a hardware context should be contextId(). The
concept of threads within a CPU remains, in the form of threadId() because
sometimes you need to know which context within a cpu to manipulate.
across the subclasses. generally make it so that member data is _cpuId and
accessor functions are cpuId(). The ID val comes from the python (default -1 if
none provided), and if it is -1, the index of cpuList will be given. this has
passed util/regress quick and se.py -n4 and fs.py -n4 as well as standard
switch.
The constructor no-longer schedules an event at construction and the implict conversion between int and bool was allowing the old code to compile without warning.

the instruction after the hwrei to be fetched before the ITB/DTB_CM register is updated in a call pal
call sys and thus the translation fails because the user is attempting to access a super page address.
Minimally, it seems as though some sort of fetch stall or refetch after a hwrei is required. I think
this works currently because the hwrei uses the exec context interface, and the o3 stalls when that occurs.
Additionally, these changes don't update the LOCK register and probably break ll/sc. Both o3 changes were
removed since a great deal of manual patching would be required to only remove the hwrei change.
python type of a latency. In addition, the multiple definitions of profile in the different cpu models caused
problems for intialization of the interval value. If a child class's profile value was defined, the parent
BaseCPU::ProfileEvent interval field would be initialized with a garbage value. The fix was to remove the
multiple redifitions of profile in the child CPU classes.
A whole bunch of stuff has been converted to use the new params stuff, but
the CPU wasn't one of them. While we're at it, make some things a bit
more stylish. Most of the work was done by Gabe, I just cleaned stuff up
a bit more at the end.
The notIdleFraction statistic isn't updated when the statistics reset, probably because the cpu Status information
was pulled into the atomic and timing cpus. This changeset pulls Status back into the BaseSimpleCPU object. Anyone
care to comment on the odd naming of the Status instance? It shouldn't just be status because that is confusing
with Port::Status, but _status seems a bit strage too.
