This patch fixes checkpoint restore in the SystemC hosting example by handling
early PollEvent events correctly before any EventQueue events are posted.
The SystemC event queue handler (SCEventQueue) reports an error if the event
loop is entered with no Events posted. It is possible for this to happen
after instantiate due to PollEvent events. This patch separates out
`external' events into a different handler in sc_module.cc to prevent the
error from occurring.
This fix also improves the event handling of asynchronous events by:
1) Making asynchronous events 'catch up' gem5 time to SystemC
time to avoid the appearance that events have been lost
while servicing an asynchronous event that schedules an
event loop exit event
2) Add an in_simulate data member to Module to allow the event
loop to check whether events should be processed or deferred
until the next time Module::simulate is entered
3) Cancel pending events around the entry/exit of the event loop
in Module::simulate
4) Moving the state initialisation of the example entirely into
run to correct a problem with early events in checkpoint
restore.
It is still possible to schedule asynchronous events (and talk PollQueue
actions) while simulate is not running. This behaviour may stil cause
some problems.
