In most cases, the microcode ROM doesn't actually do anything. The
structural existence of a microcode ROM doesn't make sense in the
general case, and in architectures that know they have one and need to
interact with it, they can cast their decoder into an arch specific type
and access the ROM that way.

Some variables were being compared against some constants with "is not",
which is not correct since it will compare for identity rather than
equivalence. There was a long standing build warning from this, but it
wasn't clear where the error was coming from since it was in python
interpreted from a string in the ISA description.
This change replaces "is not" in those two places with "!=".

In sim/vma.hh, the include was indirectly getting the definition of
DPRINTF. It was replaced with an include of base/trace.hh which actually
provides that definition.
In the indirect branch predictor, it was being used to get the
definition of TheISA::PCState. This should come from arch/types.hh
instead.

Original Creator: Adria Armejach.
Branch instructions needed to be annotated in x86 as direct/indirect and conditional/unconditional. These annotations where not present causing the branch predictor to misbehave, not using the BTB. In addition, logic to determine the real branch target at decode needed to be added as it was also missing.

The "hello" tests that were previously ignored are all functioning
correctly, and are therefore being re-included in the test suite. The
MIPS and SPARC tests have been tagged a "long" as we do not compile
these ISAs are part of our "quick" tests.

This code was at least a little Alpha specific, and now that Alpha is
gone it can no longer be compiled. We could either fix it up to work
with other/all ISAs or delete it, and the consensus was to delete it. It
could potentially be revived in the future by retrieving it from version
control.

Also remove it's Alpha centric implementation. All existing ISAs will
panic since they all define the guarding constant as false. Even if they
defined it as true, this function assumes that there is necessarily a misc
reg which can be read to find the current thread_info struct, and how
the contents of that register should be manipulated.
This code is already fairly fragile since it depends on things in the
Linux kernel having certain names and relationships with each other, but
that's a larger problem I don't want to fix right now.

The getDoubleBits function was used exactly once to find the bit
representation of a double floating point value, which is the same thing
the common floatToBits64 function does. Eliminate x86's one off version,
and use the common one instead.

This was originally from the GCN staging branch, which only had
GPU_VIPER.py, but the other GPU_VIPER configs had DirMem as well, so I
applied this change to all of them.
The patch replaces the Directory in DirCntrl from DirMem to
RubyDirectoryMemory. This fixes errors that DirMem caused relating to
setting class variables. It also generates and sets addr_ranges in
DirCntrl as RubyDirectoryMemory uses the parent object's addr_ranges
in its code
The style checker complained about a line length in GPU_VIPER_Region,
so the patch also fixes that

The patch is aiming at speeding up gem5 execution. The TLB::translateFs
is in the critical path of the simulator: every fetch + ld/st will make
use of it.
Checking all the time for a breakpoint during fetch is rather expensive;
it is better to make use of the cached booleans in SelfDebug to do an
early check to see if any of
Watchpoint/Breakpopint/VectorCatch/SoftwareStep is enabled.
Most workloads won't use them so there's no point on calling the
testDebug method

* enableFlag -> mde
The "enableFlag" variable, enabling the Breakpoint, Watchpoint, Vector
Catch exceptions is actually the cached version of MDSCR_EL1.MDE. The
"enableFlag" name looks too general as it's not covering the Software
Step exception case.
* bKDE -> kde
* bSDD -> sdd
The b prefix was likely referring to "breakpoint". However these bitfields
are actually used by watchpoints as well.
