This patch implements an L-TAGE predictor, based on André Seznec's code
available from CBP-2
(http://hpca23.cse.tamu.edu/taco/camino/cbp2/cbp-src/realistic-seznec.h).

This patch adds a configurable indirect branch predictor that can be indexed
by a combination of GHR and path history hashes. Implements the functionality
described in:
"Target prediction for indirect jumps" by Chang, Hao, and Patt

This is a re-spin of fb9d142 after the revert (bd1c6789).

having separate params for the local/globalHistoryBits and the
local/globalPredictorSize can lead to inconsistencies if they
are not carefully set. this patch dervies the number of bits
necessary to index into the local/global predictors based on
their size.
the value of the localHistoryTableSize for the ARM O3 CPU has been
increased to 1024 from 64, which is more accurate for an A15 based
on some correlation against A15 hardware.

This patch moves the branch predictor files in the o3 and inorder directories
to src/cpu/pred. This allows sharing the branch predictor across different
cpu models.
This patch was originally posted by Timothy Jones in July 2010
but never made it to the repository.
