Some AArch64 system registers report UNDEFINED behaviours if accessed
from EL2 or EL3 in a non-EL2 Host enabled (HCR_EL2.E2H == 0) environment.
Examples of these are seen in the Generic Timer system registers,
namely CNTP_CTL_EL02 or CNTKCTL_EL12.
This patch provides an ISA filter for specifying the above condition.

These two functions were called in exactly one place one right after
the other, and served similar purposes.
This change merges them together, and cleans them up slightly. It also
removes checks for FullSystem, since those functions are only called
in full system to begin with.

The call to initCPU was moved into initState in the base CPU class
since it should only really be called when starting a simulation
fresh. Otherwise checkpointed state will be loaded over the state of
the CPU anyway, so there's no reason to set up anything else.
Unfortunately that made it possible for the System level initialization
and the CPU initialization to happen out of order, effectively letting
initCPU clobber the state the System might have set up to prepare for
executing a kernel for instance.
To work around that issue, the call was moved to init which would
necessarily happen before initState, restoring the original ordering.
This change moves the change *back* into initState, but of the System
class instead of the CPU class. This makes it possible to guarantee
that OS initialization happens after initCPU since that's also done
by System subclasses, and they control when they call initCPU of the
base class.
This also slightly simmplifies when initCPU is called since we
shouldn't need to check whether a context is switched out or not. If
it's registered with the System object, then it should be in a
currently swapped in CPU.
This also puts the initCPU and startupCPU calls right next to each
other. A future change will take advantage of that and merge the
calls together.
Also, because there are already ISA specific subclasses of System
which already have specialized versions of initState, we should be
able to move the code in initCPU and startupCPU directly into those
subclasses. That will give those subclasses more flexibilty if, for
instance, they want all CPUs to start running in the BIOS like they
would on a real system, or if they want only the BSP to be active
as if the BIOS had already paused the APs before passing control to
a bootloader or OS.
This will also remove another two TheISA:: style functions, reducing
the number of global dependencies on a single ISA.

All of the state being checkpointed would either be provided by the
config directly, or would be brought into the TLB through normal fill
operations. Having this state in the checkpoint complicates the
checkpoint and significantly decreases compatibility with other TLB
implementations, or even variations of the same TLB, for instance if
the size was changed.

This doesn't actually change any behavior since RAX was being zeroed
anyway, but since we don't and almost certainly never will have a BIST
and the BIST is optional even in real hardware, we can drop it and
simplify initCPU a little further.
This reduces x86's initCPU function to just an invocation of
InitInterrupt's invoke.

The initCPU function was setting a lot of values to zero or other
initial values, but that's something the ISA object can do as part of
its clear() method. This gets rid of a lot of code that was
individually zeroing registers, and also centralizes responsibility
for those registers in the ISA.

The default constructor of the micropc enabled generic PCState class
set the next micropc to 0, when the non-default constructor and at
least the x86 initCPU utility function set it to 1. This makes more
sense since either the micropc doesn't matter as a concept if the
instruction isn't microcoded, or, unless redirected by a micropc
branch, you're going to want to execute the next microop and not just
repeat the first one.

This mechanism is shared between ARM and x86, even if x86 has a typical
address range it choses to use. By moving this to the base class, it's
now possible for anybody to find out where the m5 ops are, and no ISA
specific assumptions need to be made.
Because the x86 address is well known, it's set in the x86 System
subclass as the default.

Right now, there are only two places which call the pseudoInst function
directly, the ARM KVM CPU and the generic mmapped IPR. These two
callers currently use the generic "PseudoInstABI" which is just a
wrapper around the existing getArgument function.
In the future, this getArgument function will be disolved, and the
PseudoInstABI will be defined for each ABI. Since it currently mimics
the Linux ABI since gem5 can only handle one ABI at a time right now,
this implementation will probably be shared by linux system calls,
except that the pseudo inst implementation will eat return values since
those are returned through other means when the pseudo inst is based on
magic address ranges.

Fast models are in practice only ARM, so it's not that helpful to have
the ARM-ness factored out. It is, however, helpful to have aspects
which control how gem5 concepts like registers are mapped to fast model
concepts like resources, especially since these mappings may vary from
fast model to fast model.
For instance, it looks like the CortexA76 does not have predicate
vector registers. Rather than make all fast models support or not
support those registers, that can be done on a model by model basis.

This was hardcoded as 5, but should be determined based on the memory
space IDs the fast model returns. What we do now is have a specific
override for ARM (perhaps conceptually the A76) which looks for an
address space called "Current" which seems to work well.
It's possible that the appropriate address space for a different model
might have a different number, or even a different name. This may need
to be further specialized/parameterized in those cases.

A comment indicates that NX support is enabled, but the bit wasn't

The SVME bit is now turned off, since Intel CPUs don't have SVME, and

The logic that determines which syscall to call was built into the
implementation of faults/exceptions or even into the instruction
decoder, but that logic can depend on what OS is being used, and
sometimes even what version, for example 32bit vs. 64bit.
This change pushes that logic up into the Process objects since those
already handle a lot of the aspects of emulating the guest OS. Instead,
the ISA or fault implementations just notify the rest of the system
that a nebulous syscall has happened, and that gets propogated upward
until the process does something with it. That's very analogous to how
a system call would work on a real machine.
When a system call happens, the low level component which detects that
should call tc->syscall(&fault), where tc is the relevant thread (or
execution) context, and fault is a Fault which can ultimately be set
by the system call implementation.
The TC implementor (probably a CPU) will then have a chance to do
whatever it needs to to handle a system call. Currently only O3 does
anything special here. That implementor will end up calling the
Process's syscall() method.
Once in Process::syscall, the process object will use it's contextual
knowledge to determine what system call is being requested. It then
calls Process::doSyscall with the right syscall number, where doSyscall
centralizes the common mechanism for actually retrieving and calling
into the system call implementation.
