This patch adds the ability for a host-OS process external to gem5
to access the backing store via POSIX shared memory.
The new param shared_backstore of the System object is the filename
of the shared memory (i.e., the first argument to shm_open()).

Some ARM instructions were using quiesce and quiesceSkip pseudo
instruction bodies instead of implementing the one line of each of those
functions themselves. This creates two problems. First, it adds an
artificial depedence on the pseudo instruction implementations. Second,
it would confusing cause pseudo instruction DPRINTFs to fire when normal
instructions were executing.
This change simply replaces the calls with their targets one line
implementation, with some very minor duplication from multiple call
sights factored out into a local variable.

When restoring a checkpoint containing a generic timer, the checkpoint
expects to connect the timer to the same number of CPUs that were
present when the checkpoint was taken. If the number of CPUs in the
new simulation is different, deserialization will fail. In the case
that the number of CPUs expected by the checkpoint is greater than the
number of CPUs present, this will cause a segmentation fault caused by
reading off the end of the list of Thread Contexts.
This commit fixes the problem by checking the number of CPUs present
in the simulation matches the number of CPUs expected by the generic
timer checkpoint. If there is a mismatch, a fatal error is triggered
with an informative message to the user.

The O3 model uses ReExec faults to flush the pipeline and restart
after a memory ordering violation, e.g. due to an incoming snoop.
These, just like branch mispredict flushes, are not architectural
faults but micro-architectural events, and should therefore not
show up on the instruction tracing interface.
This adds a check on faulting instructions in commit, to verify
if the instruction faulted due to ReExec, to avoid tracing it.

This commit makes it possible to make invocations such as:
gem5.opt se.py --stats-root 'system.cpu[:].dtb' --stats-root 'system.membus'
When --stats-root is given, only stats that are under any of the root
SimObjects get dumped. E.g. the above invocation would dump stats such as:
system.cpu0.dtb.walker.pwrStateResidencyTicks::UNDEFINED
system.cpu1.dtb.walker.pwrStateResidencyTicks::UNDEFINED
system.membus.pwrStateResidencyTicks::UNDEFINED
system.membus.trans_dist::ReadReq
but not for example `system.clk_domain.clock`.
If the --stats-root is given, only new stats as defined at:
Idc8ff448b9f70a796427b4a5231e7371485130b4 get dumped, and old ones are
ignored. The commits following that one have done some initial conversion
work, but many stats are still in the old format.

Currently, when an instruction has an operand that reads a const
value, it goes thru the same readMiscReg() api call as other
misc registers (real HW registers, not constant values). There
is an issue, however, when casting from the const values (which are
32b) to higher precision values, like 64b.
This change creates a separate, templated function call to the GPU's
ISA state that will return the correct type.

We already provide to the user the CCFLAGS_EXTRA, LDFLAGS_EXTRA
variables to pass flags to scons when compiling/linking gem5.
Those variables are not passed to the marshal object.
We add an extra pair:
MARSHAL_CCFLAGS_EXTRA, MARSHAL_LDFLAGS_EXTRA
to add flag injection capabilities to the marshal object.
The patch is also renaming base_py_env to marshal_env.
This happens for 2 reasons:
1) At the moment the marshal compilation is the only task
making use of the base python environment.
2) Consistency with the EXTRA variable names added with this patch.
I could have named them as BASE_XXFLAGS_EXTRA, but it seems too much
generic and users might be confused by that, as they might think
the BASE_XXFLAGS_EXTRA is a subset of the XXFLAGS_EXTRA so that
setting it will affect gem5 compilation as well.
