It's constructor will now warn that it's deprecated and suggest using
ClockedObject directly. This change also gets rid of the params()
method and the Params typedef since they are functionally equivalent to
the ClockedObject versions.
It also removes the include of mem/port.hh which is not used in
mem_object.hh. This may break code which purposefully or (more likely)
accidentally depended on that transitive include from mem_object.hh.

To ensure that enqueuer observes the practical availability. We
check the message buffer queue size at the start of the cycle.
We also add the size of the stall queue to consider the total
queue size. However, messages can be moved from regular queue
to stall map. This leads to messages being considered twice leading
to false flow control. This patch fixes it by storing the stall map
size at the beginning of the cycle and considering it for checking
availability.

Make MultiBitSelBloomFilter a generic BloomFilter that maps
multiple entries to an address, and therefore uses multiple
hash functions. This allows the common functionality of both
filters to be merged into one, since they only differ in the
hash functions being used.

This returns a sendFunctional delegate references which can be used
to send functional accesses directly, or more likely when constructing
a PortProxy subclass. In those cases only the functional capabilities
of those ports are needed so there's no reason to require a full port
which supports all three protocols. Also, this removes the last
remaining use of get(Data|Inst)Port which relies on those returning
a port which supports the gem5 protocols, except the default
implementations of this new function. If a CPU doesn't have
traditional gem5 style ports, it can override this function to
do whatever other behavior is necessary and return its real ports
through get(Data|Inst)Port.

The only part of the MaserPort the PortProxy uses is the sendFunctional
function which is part of the functional protocol. Rather than require
a MasterPort which comes along with a lot of other mechanisms, this
change slightly adjusts the PortProxy to only require that function
through the use of a delegate. That allows lots of flexibility in how
the actual packet gets sent and what sends it.
In cases where code constructs a PortProxy and passes its constructor
an unbound MasterPort, the PortProxy will create a delegate to the
sendFunctional method on its own.
This should also make it easier for objects which don't have
traditional gem5 style ports, for instance systemc models, to implement
just the little bit of the protocol they need, rather than having to
stub out a whole port class, most of which will be ignored.

The base Port class can keep track of its peer, and also whether it's
connected. This is partially delegated away from the port subclasses
which still keep track of a cast version of their peer pointer for
their own conveneince, so that it can be used by generic code. Even
with the Port mechanism's new flexibility, each port still has
exactly one peer and is either connected or not based on whether there
is a peer currently.

64687ee mem-cache: Mark block as dirty after a SWPrefetchEXResp.
Previous patch misses cases when the prefetch response is ReadExResp or
UpgradeResp. Also, marking the block as dirty in serviceMSHRTargets
instead of in handleFill covers cases when the prefetch is coalesced with
other requests.

Ruby caches block incoming ports with messages on a locked
address to make sure the line would not be replaced by others.
But they do not check the lock upon capacity/conflict misses.
This change adds a new slicc statement "check_on_cache_probe" which takes
two arguments (mandatoryQueue for the controller, and the line subject
to eviction - i.e. address returned by cacheProbe).
If the line is locked, incoming message is delayed for 1 cycle and the
controller skips this request (i.e. does not trigger an event).
Coherence protocols should be updated accordingly. One use case for MESI
Two Level will be added in a separate change.

Implementation of C-Pack, as described in "C-Pack: A High-
Performance Microprocessor Cache Compression Algorithm".
C-Pack uses pattern matching schemes to detect and compress
frequently appearing data patterns. As in the original paper,
it divides the input in 32-bit words, and uses 6 patterns to
match with its dictionary.
For the patterns, each letter represents a byte: Z is a null
byte, M is a dictionary match, X is a new value. The patterns
are ZZZZ, XXXX, MMMM, MMXX, ZZZX, MMMX.

Most of the index based functions were not implemented, and a
user is more likely to be interested in checking the filter
contents based on an address than an index.
As a side effect, the Bulk's hash function became unused, and
according to the paper permute() was doing more than just
permuting, so it was renamed.

This reverts commit bf0a722acd.
Reason for revert: This patch introduces a bug:
The problem here is that the insertion of block A may cause the
eviction of block B, which on the lower level may cause the
eviction of block A. Since A is not marked as present yet, A is
"safely" removed from the snoop filter
However, by reverting it, using atomic and a Tags sub-class that
can generate multiple evictions at once becomes broken when using
Atomic mode and shall be fixed in a future patch.
