Giacomo Travaglini 04ee39a2e8 arch-arm: Fix Compare and Swap Pair instructions
Those instructions were broken after:

https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/38381/4

Which is effectively replacing the generic StaticInst src and dest
reg array with an instruction specific one.
The size of the array is evaluated by the ISA parser, which is
counting the operands when parsing the isa code.
Alas, Compare and Swap Pair instructions were augmenting the number
of destination and source registers in the C++ world, which is
invisible to the parser. This lead to an out of bounds access
of the arrays.

This patch is fixing this behaviour by defining XResult2, which
is the second compare/result register for a paired CAS

This is the gem5 simulator.

The main website can be found at http://www.gem5.org

A good starting point is http://www.gem5.org/about, and for
more information about building the simulator and getting started
please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation and
http://www.gem5.org/documentation/learning_gem5/introduction.

To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang,
Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, SWIG, zlib, m4,
and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback
support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building
for more details concerning the minimum versions of the aforementioned tools.

Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons
build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of ARM, NULL, MIPS, POWER, SPARC,
or X86. This will build an optimized version of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt)
for the the specified architecture. See
http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building for more details and
options.

The basic source release includes these subdirectories:
   - configs: example simulation configuration scripts
   - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5
   - src: source code of the gem5 simulator
   - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems
   - tests: regression tests
   - util: useful utility programs and files

To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled system firmware
(console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk
images.

If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org

Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
