This modifies the crash fix so that the function calls that were
modified use a local variables called `is_secure` instead of a
hardcoded `false`. Some of these existed previously so it made
more sense to use them, while others were newly added in to mark
where the code might need to be changed later.

This commit fixes the "Need is_secure arg" crash that occurs when
using the IndirectMemoryPrefetcher, SignaturePathPrefetcher,
SignaturePathPrefetcherV2, STeMSPrefetcher, and PIFPrefetcher. This
was done by changing some variables to be AssociativeSet<...>
instead of AssociativeCache<...> and changing the affected function
calls.

I noticed while using the stable branch that there were a few typos of

When compiler tries to inline a vector construction with a default value
as default constructed ReplaceableEntry. It can complain about the
uninitialized member.
Let's provide basic initialization to the members.
Example codepath:
SignaturePathV2 constructor
-> GlobalHistoryEntry() as init_value to AssociativeSet
-> AssociativeSet initialize vector<Entry> with init_value
Remove the requirement in TreePLRU's implementation that the number of
leaves (i.e., the number of cache ways) be a power of two. Firstly, on
some recent processors, this is not the case---for example, Intel Golden
Cove's L1D has 12 ways. Secondly, The implementation of TreePLRU appears
to work just fine as-is with a way count that's not a power of two.

AssociativeSet can reuse most of the generic cache library code with the
addition of a secure bit. This reduces duplicated code.

The new ISA-agnostic interface is the PartitionManager.
We therefore make the PartitionFieldExtention private to the
Arm implementation of memory partitioning (FEAT_MPAM)
Any other partitioning implementation should override the
PartitionManager::readPacketPartitionID to provide a mean
for extracting partitioning data (partition_id) from the
incoming Packet.
With this commit we also define an MPAM MSC which is
supposed to be the partitioning manager for the
Memory System Component

This is a first step towards offloading some of the partitioning
logic to the partitioning manager. We start with this patch
by replacing the static readPacketPartitionId into a virtual
method owned by the manager.
The issue with readPacketPartitionId as of now is that it relies
on the fixed PartitionFieldExtention.
We want user to be able to extract the partitionId more flexibly
and this requires using a SimObject

The Stride Prefetcher will skip this number of strides ahead of the
first identified prefetch, then generate `degree` prefetches at
`stride` intervals. A value of zero indicates no skip (i.e. start
prefetching from the next identified prefetch address).
This parameter can be used to increase the timeliness of prefetches by
starting to prefetch far enough ahead of the demand stream to cover
the memory system latency.

When processing memory Packets for prefetch, the `PrefetchInfo` class
constructor will attempt to copy the `Packet` data. In cases where the
`Packet` under consideration does not contain data, an assertion will be
triggered in the Packet's `getConstPtr` method, causing the simulation
to crash.
This problem was first exposed by Bug #580 when processing an
`UpgradeReq` memory packet.
This patch addresses the problem by suppressing the copying of the
`Packet` data during construction of a `PrefetchInfo` object in cases
where the `Packet` has no data.

This patches decouples the prefetchers from the cache implementation
as the first step to allow using the classic prefetchers with ruby
caches. The prefetchers that need do cache lookups can do so using
the accessor object provided when the probes are notified. This may

This change, https://github.com/gem5/gem5/pull/205, mistakenly

When a linux kernel changes a page property, it flushes the related cache
lines. The kernel might change the page property before flushing the
cache lines. This results in the clflush might occur in an uncacheable region.
Currently, an uncacheable request must be a read or a write. However,
clflush request is neither of them.
This change aims to allow clflush requests to work on uncacheable regions.
Since there is no straightforward way to check if a packet is from a clflush
instruction, this change permits all Clean Invalidate Requests, which is
the type of request produced by clflush, to work on uncacheable regions.

We now explicitly check in both the cache and the MSHRs if writes are
masked or not before promoting to a whole-line write. Failure to do
this previously was resulting in data loss when dirty data was present
in lower level caches and a coincidentally aligned and
cache-line-sized masked write occured.
