IntDevice::recvResponse is called from two places in current mainline: (1) the
short circuit path of X86ISA::IntDevice::IntMasterPort::sendMessage for atomic
mode, and (2) the full request->response path to and from the x86 interrupts
device (finally called from MessageMasterPort::recvTimingResp). In the former
case, the packet was deleted correctly, but in the latter case, the packet and
request leak. To fix the leak, move request and packet deletion into IntDevice
inherited class implementations of recvResponse.

PciDev and IntDev stuck out as the only device classes that
ended in 'Dev' rather than 'Device'. This patch takes care
of that inconsistency.
Note that you may need to delete pre-existing files matching
build/*/python/m5/internal/param_* as scons does not pick up
indirect dependencies on imported python modules when generating
params, and the PciDev -> PciDevice rename takes place in a
file (dev/Device.py) that gets imported quite a bit.

This patch extends the queued port interfaces with methods for
scheduling the transmission of a timing request/response. The methods
are named similar to the corresponding sendTiming(Snoop)Req/Resp,
replacing the "send" with "sched". As the queues are currently
unbounded, the methods always succeed and hence do not return a value.
This functionality was previously provided in the subclasses by
calling PacketQueue::schedSendTiming with the appropriate
parameters. With this change, there is no need to introduce these
extra methods in the subclasses, and the use of the queued interface
is more uniform and explicit.

This patch introduces the notion of a master and slave port in the C++
code, thus bringing the previous classification from the Python
classes into the corresponding simulation objects and memory objects.
The patch enables us to classify behaviours into the two bins and add
assumptions and enfore compliance, also simplifying the two
interfaces. As a starting point, isSnooping is confined to a master
port, and getAddrRanges to slave ports. More of these specilisations
are to come in later patches.
The getPort function is not getMasterPort and getSlavePort, and
returns a port reference rather than a pointer as NULL would never be
a valid return value. The default implementation of these two
functions is placed in MemObject, and calls fatal.
The one drawback with this specific patch is that it requires some
code duplication, e.g. QueuedPort becomes QueuedMasterPort and
QueuedSlavePort, and BusPort becomes BusMasterPort and BusSlavePort
(avoiding multiple inheritance). With the later introduction of the
port interfaces, moving the functionality outside the port itself, a
lot of the duplicated code will disappear again.

This patch decouples the queueing and the port interactions to
simplify the introduction of the master and slave ports. By separating
the queueing functionality from the port itself, it becomes much
easier to distinguish between master and slave ports, and still retain
the queueing ability for both (without code duplication).
As part of the split into a PacketQueue and a port, there is now also
a hierarchy of two port classes, QueuedPort and SimpleTimingPort. The
QueuedPort is useful for ports that want to leave the packet
transmission of outgoing packets to the queue and is used by both
master and slave ports. The SimpleTimingPort inherits from the
QueuedPort and adds the implemention of recvTiming and recvFunctional
through recvAtomic.
The PioPort and MessagePort are cleaned up as part of the changes.

This patch simplifies the mport in preparation for a split into a
master and slave role for the message ports. In particular,
sendMessageAtomic was only used in a single location and similarly so
sendMessageTiming. The affected interrupt device is updated
accordingly.

This patch moves all port creation from the getPort method to be
consistently done in the MemObject's constructor. This is possible
thanks to the Swig interface passing the length of the vector ports.
Previously there was a mix of: 1) creating the ports as members (at
object construction time) and using getPort for the name resolution,
or 2) dynamically creating the ports in the getPort call. This is now
uniform. Furthermore, objects that would not be complete without a
port have these ports as members rather than having pointers to
dynamically allocated ports.
This patch also enables an elaboration-time enumeration of all the
ports in the system which can be used to determine the masterId.

This patch simplifies the address-range determination mechanism and
also unifies the naming across ports and devices. It further splits
the queries for determining if a port is snooping and what address
ranges it responds to (aiming towards a separation of
cache-maintenance ports and pure memory-mapped ports). Default
behaviours are such that most ports do not have to define isSnooping,
and master ports need not implement getAddrRanges.

Double packet delete problem is due to an interrupt device deleting a packet that the SimpleTimingPort also deletes. Since MessagePort descends from SimpleTimingPort, simply reimplement the failing code from SimpleTimingPort: recvTiming.

The IntDev class is a base for anything that supports IntPins. IntPins allow
devices to generically trigger interrupts on a particular pin of an IntDev
device without having to know what the device is or what pin they're attached
to.
