This is a hack so that the IO APIC can figure out information about the local
APICs. The local APICs still have no way to find out about each other.
Ideally, when the local APICs update state that's relevant to somebody else,
they'd send an update to everyone. Without being able to do a broadcast, that
would still require knowing who else there is to notify. Other broadcasts are
implemented using assumptions that may not always be true.

The ID as exposed to software can be changed. Tracking those changes in M5
would be cumbersome, especially since there's no guarantee the IDs will remain
unique.

This code compiles, but there are no tests still

This patch adds limited multithreading support in syscall-emulation
mode, by using the clone system call. The clone system call works
for Alpha, SPARC and x86, and multithreaded applications run
correctly in Alpha and SPARC.

This microop does a store and unlocks the requested address. The RISC86
microop ISA doesn't seem to have an equivalent to this, so I'm guessing that
the store following an ldstl is automatically unlocking. We don't do it this
way for performance reasons since the behavior is the same.

This microop does a load, checks that a store would succeed, and locks the
requested address.
