cpu-o3: Add support for pinned writes
This patch adds support for pinning registers for a certain number of
consecutive writes. This is only relevant for timing CPU models
(functional-only models are unaffected), and it is primarily needed to
provide a realistic execution model for micro-coded operations whose
microops can write to non-overlapping portions of a destination
register, e.g. vector gather loads. In those cases, this mechanism
can disable renaming for a sequence of consecutive writes, thus making
the resulting execution more efficient: allocating a new physical
register for each microop would introduce a read-modify-write chain of
dependencies, while with these modifications the microops can write
back in parallel.
Please note that this new feature is only leveraged by O3CPU for the
time being.
