arch-arm: Fix Virtual interrupts in AArch64

Checking if cpsr.mode is equal to MODE_HYP doesn't work for AArch64.
This is because AArch64 is using different modes when in EL2, like EL2T
and EL2H.
This made Virtual Interrupts to be triggered even when executing in EL2
(hypervisor) whereas they should interrupt the scheduled VM only
(Non-Secure EL0 and EL1). This patch is fixing this by using the generic
currEL() helper for getting the exception level, which is working for
both AArch32 and AArch64.

arm: Fix secure state checking in various places

Faults that could potentially be routed to the hypervisor checked
whether or not they were in a secure state without checking if security
was enabled or not. This caused faults not to be routed correctly. This
patch causes secure state checking to first ask if security is enabled.

isa: Modify get/check interrupt routines

Make it so that getInterrupt *always* returns an interrupt if
checkInterrupts() returns true. This fixes/simplifies handling
of interrupts on the SMT FS CPUs (currently minor).

sim: Refactor the serialization base class

Objects that are can be serialized are supposed to inherit from the
Serializable class. This class is meant to provide a unified API for
such objects. However, so far it has mainly been used by SimObjects
due to some fundamental design limitations. This changeset redesigns
to the serialization interface to make it more generic and hide the
underlying checkpoint storage. Specifically:

* Add a set of APIs to serialize into a subsection of the current
object. Previously, objects that needed this functionality would
use ad-hoc solutions using nameOut() and section name
generation. In the new world, an object that implements the
interface has the methods serializeSection() and
unserializeSection() that serialize into a named /subsection/ of
the current object. Calling serialize() serializes an object into
the current section.

* Move the name() method from Serializable to SimObject as it is no
longer needed for serialization. The fully qualified section name
is generated by the main serialization code on the fly as objects
serialize sub-objects.

* Add a scoped ScopedCheckpointSection helper class. Some objects
need to serialize data structures, that are not deriving from
Serializable, into subsections. Previously, this was done using
nameOut() and manual section name generation. To simplify this,
this changeset introduces a ScopedCheckpointSection() helper
class. When this class is instantiated, it adds a new /subsection/
and subsequent serialization calls during the lifetime of this
helper class happen inside this section (or a subsection in case
of nested sections).

* The serialize() call is now const which prevents accidental state
manipulation during serialization. Objects that rely on modifying
state can use the serializeOld() call instead. The default
implementation simply calls serialize(). Note: The old-style calls
need to be explicitly called using the
serializeOld()/serializeSectionOld() style APIs. These are used by
default when serializing SimObjects.

* Both the input and output checkpoints now use their own named
types. This hides underlying checkpoint implementation from
objects that need checkpointing and makes it easier to change the
underlying checkpoint storage code.

arch: Use shared_ptr for all Faults

This patch takes quite a large step in transitioning from the ad-hoc
RefCountingPtr to the c++11 shared_ptr by adopting its use for all
Faults. There are no changes in behaviour, and the code modifications
are mostly just replacing "new" with "make_shared".

arm: Add support for ARMv8 (AArch64 & AArch32)

Note: AArch64 and AArch32 interworking is not supported. If you use an AArch64
kernel you are restricted to AArch64 user-mode binaries. This will be addressed
in a later patch.

Note: Virtualization is only supported in AArch32 mode. This will also be fixed
in a later patch.

arm: Add a method to query interrupt state ignoring CPSR masks

Add the method checkRaw to ArmISA::Interrupts. This method can be used
to query the raw state (ignoring CPSR masks) of an interrupt. It is
primarily intended for hardware virtualized CPUs.

Fix bugs due to interaction between SEV instructions and O3 pipeline

SEV instructions were originally implemented to cause asynchronous squashes
via the generateTCSquash() function in the O3 pipeline when updating the
SEV_MAILBOX miscReg. This caused race conditions between CPUs in an MP system
that would lead to a pipeline either going inactive indefinitely or not being
able to commit squashed instructions. Fixed SEV instructions to behave like
interrupts and cause synchronous sqaushes inside the pipeline, eliminating
the race conditions. Also fixed up the semantics of the WFE instruction to
behave as documented in the ARMv7 ISA description to not sleep if SEV_MAILBOX=1
or unmasked interrupts are pending.

O3: Fixes fetch deadlock when the interrupt clears before CPU handles it.

When this condition occurs the cpu should restart the fetch stage to fetch from
the original execution path. Fault handling in the commit stage is cleaned up a
little bit so the control flow is simplier. Finally, if an instruction is being
used to carry a fault it isn't executed, so the fault propagates appropriately.
