Replacement policies aren't aware of cache sets and do not
organize blocks based on replacement data. Block search is
independent of block placement.
Besides, indexing policies have their own way of addressing
the sets, therefore there is no need to use this class anymore.
BlkType has been removed, as it wasn't being used.

CacheSet blocks were being allocated but never freed.
Used vector to avoid using pure C array.

Minor tweaks and house keeping.
|
|
This patch adds the basic building blocks required to support e.g. ARM
TrustZone by discerning secure and non-secure memory accesses.
|
|
This patch reorganizes the cache tags to allow more flexibility to
implement new replacement policies. The base tags class is now a
clocked object so that derived classes can use a clock if they need
one. Also having deriving from SimObject allows specialized Tag
classes to be swapped in/out in .py files.
The cache set is now templatized to allow it to contain customized
cache blocks with additional informaiton. This involved moving code to
the .hh file and removing cacheset.cc.
The statistics belonging to the cache tags are now including ".tags"
in their name. Hence, the stats need an update to reflect the change
in naming.

The LRU policy always evicted the least recently touched way, even if it
contained valid data and another way was invalid, as can happen if a block has
been invalidated by coherance. This can result in caches never warming up even
though they are replacing blocks. This modifies the LRU policy to move blocks
to LRU position on invalidation.
