f268d7d004 alpha: make hwrei a control inst
this always changes the PC and is basically an impromptu branch instruction. why
not speculate on this instead of always be forced to mispredict/squash after the
hwrei gets resolved?

The InOrder model needs this marked as "isControl" so it knows to update the PC
after the ALU executes it. If this isnt marked as control, then it's going to
force the model to check the PC of every instruction at commit (what O3 does?),
and that would be a wasteful check for a very high percentage of instructions.

3c417ea23a inorder: find register dependencies "lazily"
Architectures like SPARC need to read the window pointer
in order to figure out it's register dependence. However,
this may not get updated until after an instruction gets
executed, so now we lazily detect the register dependence
in the EXE stage (execution unit or use_def). This
makes sure we get the mapping after the most current change.

9fe3610b32 ARM: Fix memset on TLB flush and initialization
Instead of clearing the entire TLB on initialization and flush, the code was
clearing only one element.  This patch corrects the memsets in the init and

8bf92329ee Ruby: Correct set LONG_BITS and INDEX_SHIFT in class Set.
The code for Set class was written under the assumption that
std::numeric_limits<long>::digits returns the number of bits used for
data type long, which was presumed to be either 32 or 64. But return value
is actually one less, that is, it is either 31 or 63. The value is now
being incremented by 1 so as to correctly set it.

91622602c2 Loader: Handle bad section names when loading an ELF file.
If there's a problem when reading the section names from a supposed ELF file,
this change makes gem5 print an error message as returned by libelf and die.
Previously these sorts of errors would make gem5 segfault when it tried to
access the section name through a NULL pointer.
