cpu: dev: sim: gpu-compute: Banish some ISA specific register types.
These types are IntReg, FloatReg, FloatRegBits, and MiscReg. There are some remaining types, specifically the vector registers and the CCReg. I'm less familiar with these new types of registers, and so will look at getting rid of them at some later time.

arm: make Arm GenericTimer a ClockedObject
Within a device tree, the GenericTimer device needs to point (via phandle) to a clock domain which is itself also an object in the device tree. Within gem5, clock domains are managed by making all clocked SimObjects inherit from ClockedObject rather than SimObject.
Without this change, the GenericTimer is unable to generate the appropriate clock domain phandle, and will crash during DTB autogeneration.

misc: Updates for gcc7.2 for x86
GCC 7.2 is much stricter than previous GCC versions. The following changes are needed:
* There is now a warning if there is an implicit fallthrough between two case statments. C++17 adds the [[fallthrough]]; declaration. However, to support non C++17 standards (i.e., C++11), we use M5_FALLTHROUGH. M5_FALLTHROUGH checks for [[fallthrough]] compliant C++17 compiler and if that doesn't exist, it defaults to nothing (no older compilers generate warnings). * The above resulted in a couple of bugs that were found. This is noted in the review request on gerrit. * throw() for dynamic exception specification is deprecated * There were a couple of new uninitialized variable warnings * Can no longer perform bitwise operations on a bool. * Must now include <functional> for std::function * Compiler bug for void* lambda. Changed to auto as work around. See https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=82878

kvm, arm: Switch to the device EQ when accessing ISA devices
ISA devices typically run in the device event queue. Previously, we assumed that devices would perform their own EQ migrations as needed. This isn't ideal since it means we have different conventions for IO devices and ISA devices. Switch to doing migrations in the KVM CPU instead to make the behavior consistent.

dev,arm: add Kvm mode of operation for CP15 timer
The timer device exposed via the ARM ISA, also known as the "CP15 timer" due to its legacy coprocessor encodings, is implemented by the GenericTimerISA class. During Kvm execution, however, this functionality is directly emulated by the hardware.
This commit subclasses the GenericTimer, which is (solely) used by GenericTimerISA, to facilitate Kvm in much the same way as the prior GIC changes: the gem5 model is used as the backing store for state, so checkpointing and CPU switching work correctly, but isn't used during Kvm execution.
The added indirection prevents the timer device from creating events when we're just updating its state, but not actually using it for simulation.

dev,arm: remove and recreate timer events around drains
Having timer events stored in checkpoints complicates Kvm execution. We change the timer behavior so that it always deschedules any pending events on a drain() and recreates them on a drainResume(), thus they will never appear in checkpoints henceforth. This pattern of behavior makes it simpler to handle Kvm execution, where the hardware performs the timer function directly.

dev, arm: Fix multi-core KVM race in the generic timer
The generic timer sometimes needs to access global state. This can lead to race conditions when simulating a multi-core KVM system where each core lives in its own thread. In that case, the setMiscReg and readMiscReg methods are called from the thread owning the CPU and not the global device thread.

The generic timer needs a pointer to an ArmSystem to wire itself to the system register handler. This was previously specified as an instance of System that was later cast to ArmSystem. Make this more robust by specifying it as an ArmSystem in the Python interface and add a check to make sure that it is non-NULL.

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.

arm, dev: Add support for a memory mapped generic timer
There are cases when we don't want to use a system register mapped generic timer, but can't use the SP804. For example, when using KVM on aarch64, we want to intercept accesses to the generic timer, but can't do so if it is using the system register interface. In such cases, we need to use a memory-mapped generic timer.
This changeset adds a device model that implements the memory mapped generic timer interface. The current implementation only supports a single frame (i.e., one virtual timer and one physical timer).

dev, arm: Add virtual timers to the generic timer model
The generic timer model currently does not support virtual counters. Virtual and physical counters both tick with the same frequency. However, virtual timers allow a hypervisor to set an offset that is subtracted from the counter when it is read. This enables the hypervisor to present a time base that ticks with virtual time in the VM (i.e., doesn't tick when the VM isn't running). Modern Linux kernels generally assume that virtual counters exist and try to use them by default.

dev, arm: Refactor and clean up the generic timer model
This changeset cleans up the generic timer a bit and moves most of the register juggling from the ISA code into a separate class in the same source file as the rest of the generic timer. It also removes the assumption that there is always 8 or fewer CPUs in the system. Instead of having a fixed limit, we now instantiate per-core timers as they are requested. This is all in preparation for other patches that add support for virtual timers and a memory mapped interface.

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