cpu: Fix o3 drain bug
For X86, the o3 CPU would get stuck with the commit stage not being
drained if an interrupt arrived while drain was pending. isDrained()
makes sure that pcState.microPC() == 0, thus ensuring that we are at
an instruction boundary. However, when we take an interrupt we
execute:
pcState.upc(romMicroPC(entry));
pcState.nupc(romMicroPC(entry) + 1);
tc->pcState(pcState);
As a result, the MicroPC is no longer zero. This patch ensures the drain is
delayed until no interrupts are present. Once draining, non-synchronous
interrupts are deffered until after the switch.
