cpu/o3: clean up rename map and free list

extraneous code and separate out common code that can
be reused across different register classes (int and fp

of Simple* objects that are stand-alone rename map &

presents a unified interface across all register

Simple* object as needed.

* CPUID (gem5's CPUID values are inserted into KVM)
* x86 legacy IO (remapped and handled by gem5's memory system)

* MSRs
* State dumping

quirks to support PCI enumerations since this is done in the TLB(!) in
the simulated CPUs. We currently replicate some of that code.
Unlike the ARM implementation, the x86 implementation of the virtual
CPU does not use the cycles hardware counter. KVM on x86 simulates the

using perfevent, we might end up measuring a slightly different number
of cycles. If we don't get the cycle accounting right, we might end up
rewinding the TSC, with all kinds of chaos as a result.

dumping. This enables Python scripts controlling the simulator to
request dumping of a subset of the processor state. The following
methods are currenlty supported:
* dumpFpuRegs
* dumpIntRegs
* dumpSpecRegs
* dumpDebugRegs
* dumpXCRs
* dumpXSave
* dumpVCpuEvents
* dumpMSRs

This patch adds the notion of voltage domains, and groups clock

A voltage domain is an independently controllable voltage supply being
provided to section of the design. Thus, if you wish to perform
dynamic voltage scaling on a CPU, its clock domain should be
associated with a separate voltage domain.
The current implementation of the voltage domain does not take into
consideration cases where there are derived voltage domains running at
ratio of native voltage domains, as with the case where there can be
on-chip buck/boost (charge pumps) voltage regulation logic.
