2014-07-28	mem: refactor LRU cache tags and add random replacement tags	Anthony Gutierrez
	this patch implements a new tags class that uses a random replacement policy. these tags prefer to evict invalid blocks first, if none are available a replacement candidate is chosen at random. this patch factors out the common code in the LRU class and creates a new abstract class: the BaseSetAssoc class. any set associative tag class must implement the functionality related to the actual replacement policy in the following methods: accessBlock() findVictim() insertBlock() invalidate()

2013-01-07	mem: Remove the IIC replacement policy	Andreas Sandberg
	The IIC replacement policy seems to be unused and has probably gathered too much bit rot to be useful. This patch removes the IIC and its associated cache parameters.
