riscv,x86: Stop using the arch Nop machine instruction unnecessarily.

That particular ExtMachInst is a convenient placeholder, but a value
of 0 in RISCV or a static uninitialized ExtMachInst (which will
therefore be all zeroes) on x86 works just as well, and removes the
need for an ISA specific constant.

Also, the idea of a universal Nop doesn't always make sense since it
could be that what, exactly, doesn't do anything depends on context
which would be lost on a constant value of an ExtMachInst. For
instance, the value of an ExtMachInst that makes sense might depend on
what mode the CPU was in, etc.

riscv: Fix bugs with RISC-V decoder and detailed CPUs

This patch fixes some bugs that were missed with the changes to the
decoder that enabled compatibility with compressed instructions. In
order to accommodate speculation with variable instruction widths, a few
assertions in decoder had to be changed to returning faults as the
specification describes should normally happen. The rest of these
assertions will be changed in a later patch.

[Remove commented-out debugging line and add clarifying comment to
registerName in utility.hh.]

arch-riscv: Add support for compressed extension RV64C

This patch adds compatibility with the 64-bit compressed extension to
the RISC-V ISA, RV64C. Current versions of the toolchain may use
compressed instructions in glibc by default, which can only be
overridden by recompiling the entire toolchain (simply adding
"-march=rv64g" or "-march=rv64imafd" when compiling a binary is not
sufficient to use uncompressed instructions in glibc functions in the
binary).

[Update diassembly generation for new RegId type.]
[Rebase onto master.]

arch: [Patch 1/5] Added RISC-V base instruction set RV64I

First of five patches adding RISC-V to GEM5. This patch introduces the
base 64-bit ISA (RV64I) in src/arch/riscv for use with syscall emulation.
The multiply, floating point, and atomic memory instructions will be added
in additional patches, as well as support for more detailed CPU models.
The loader is also modified to be able to parse RISC-V ELF files, and a
"Hello world\!" example for RISC-V is added to test-progs.

Patch 2 will implement the multiply extension, RV64M; patch 3 will implement
the floating point (single- and double-precision) extensions, RV64FD;
patch 4 will implement the atomic memory instructions, RV64A, and patch 5
will add support for timing, minor, and detailed CPU models that is missing
from the first four patches (such as handling locked memory).

[Removed several unused parameters and imports from RiscvInterrupts.py,
RiscvISA.py, and RiscvSystem.py.]
[Fixed copyright information in RISC-V files copied from elsewhere that had
ARM licenses attached.]
[Reorganized instruction definitions in decoder.isa so that they are sorted
by opcode in preparation for the addition of ISA extensions M, A, F, D.]
[Fixed formatting of several files, removed some variables and
instructions that were missed when moving them to other patches, fixed
RISC-V Foundation copyright attribution, and fixed history of files
copied from other architectures using hg copy.]
[Fixed indentation of switch cases in isa.cc.]
[Reorganized syscall descriptions in linux/process.cc to remove large
number of repeated unimplemented system calls and added implmementations
to functions that have received them since it process.cc was first
created.]
[Fixed spacing for some copyright attributions.]
[Replaced the rest of the file copies using hg copy.]
[Fixed style check errors and corrected unaligned memory accesses.]
[Fix some minor formatting mistakes.]
