/**
 * DefaultRename handles both single threaded and SMT rename. Its
 * width is specified by the parameters; each cycle it tries to rename
 * that many instructions. It holds onto the rename history of all
 * instructions with destination registers, storing the
 * arch. register, the new physical register, and the old physical
 * register, to allow for undoing of mappings if squashing happens, or
 * freeing up registers upon commit. Rename handles blocking if the
 * ROB, IQ, or LSQ is going to be full. Rename also handles barriers,
 * and does so by stalling on the instruction until the ROB is empty
 * and there are no instructions in flight to the ROB.
