9145e2cfd4 test: Use SimpleMemory for atomic full-system tests
Keep it simple and use the SimpleMemory rather than the DRAM
controller model for atomic full-system tests.

a8480fe1c3 config: Move the memory instantiation outside FSConfig
This patch moves the instantiation of the memory controller outside
FSConfig and instead relies on the mem_ranges to pass the information
to the caller (e.g. fs.py or one of the regression scripts). The main
motivation for this change is to expose the structural composition of
the memory system and allow more tuning and configuration without
adding a large number of options to the makeSystem functions.

The patch updates the relevant example scripts to maintain the current
functionality. As the order that ports are connected to the memory bus
changes (in certain regresisons), some bus stats are shuffled
around. For example, what used to be layer 0 is now layer 1.

Going forward, options will be added to support the addition of
multi-channel memory controllers.

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.
