The TBE pointer in the MESI CMP implementation was not being set to NULL
when the TBE is deallocated. This resulted in segmentation fault on testing
the protocol when the ProtocolTrace was switched on.
JMP_FAR_I was unpacking its far pointer operand using sll instead of srl like
it should, and also putting the components in the wrong registers for use by
other microcode.
During iret access LDT/GDT at CPL0 rather than after transition to user mode
(if I'm reading the Intel IA-64 architecture spec correctly, the contents of
the descriptor table are read before the CPL is updated).
The code for Orion 2.0 makes use of printf() at several places where there as
an error in configuration of the model. These have been replaced with fatal().
This way things that don't care about work count options and/or aren't called
by something that has those command line options set up doesn't have to build
a fake object to carry in inert values.
By stalling and waiting the mandatory queue instead of recycling it, one can
ensure that no incoming messages are starved when the mandatory queue puts
signficant of pressure on the L1 cache controller (i.e. the ruby memtester).

The packet now identifies whether static or dynamic data has been allocated and
is used by Ruby to determine whehter to copy the data pointer into the ruby
request. Subsequently, Ruby can be told not to update phys memory when
receiving packets.
Move page table walker state to its own object type, and make the
walker instantiate state for each outstanding walk. By storing the
states in a queue, the walker is able to handle multiple outstanding
timing requests. Note that functional walks use separate state
elements.
In sendSplitData, keep a pointer to the senderState that may be updated after
the call to handle*Packet. This way, if the receiver updates the packet
senderState, it can still be accessed in sendSplitData.
Double packet delete problem is due to an interrupt device deleting a packet that the SimpleTimingPort also deletes. Since MessagePort descends from SimpleTimingPort, simply reimplement the failing code from SimpleTimingPort: recvTiming.
Separate data VCs and ctrl VCs in garnet, as ctrl VCs have 1 buffer per VC,
while data VCs have > 1 buffers per VC. This is for correct power estimations.
Maintain all information about an instruction's fault in the DynInst object rather
than any cpu-request object. Also, if there is a fault during the execution stage
then just save the fault inside the instruction and trap once the instruction
tries to graduate
