ARM systems require the coordination of the global and local
monitors. When the system is run without caches the global monitor is
implemented in the abstract memory object. This change adds a callback
from the abstract memory that notifies the local monitor when the
global monitor is cleared.
Additionally, for ARM systems the local monitor signals the event
register and wakes the thread context up. Subsequent wait-for-event
(WFE) instructions will be immediately signaled.

snooped.
This patch add support for generating wake-up events in the CPU when an address
that is currently in the exclusive state is hit by a snoop. This mechanism is required
for ARMv8 multi-processor support.

This patch unlocks the cpu-local monitor when the CPU sees a snoop to a locked
address. Previously we relied on the cache to handle the locking for us, however
some users on the gem5 mailing list reported a case where the cpu speculatively
executes a ll operation after a pending sc operation in the pipeline and that
makes the cache monitor valid. This should handle that case by invaliding the
local monitor.

Ran all the source files through 'perl -pi' with this script:
s|\s*(};?\s*)?/\*\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*\*/(\s*})?|} // namespace $3|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*|} // namespace $2\n|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(\S+)\s*namespace\s*|} // namespace $1\n|;
Also did a little manual editing on some of the arch/*/isa_traits.hh files
and src/SConscript.

This adds support for the 32-bit, big endian Power ISA. This supports both
integer and floating point instructions based on the Power ISA Book I v2.06.
