kvm: Add an option to force context sync on kvm entry/exit
This changeset adds an option to force the kvm-based CPUs to always synchronize the gem5 thread context representation on entry/exit into the kernel. This is very useful for debugging. Unfortunately, it is also the only way to get reliable register contents when using remote gdb functionality. The long-term solution for the latter would be to implement a kvm-specific thread context.
