fb259583dc Attempt to clear tag on exception path before forwarding. 
This is likely to be bad for timing, but might just work at 25MHz.

37a7745f1a Fix a few errors in the previous commit, and importantly, make the 
"push" from writeback just a write to the location that was meant to
push to, rather than the current head.

9d68d877d9 Move to much simpler design. 
Just update the head in Decode, and write data from Execute.
A loop calling from the same place will at least find the correct
address.
Also, the bad fixup interaction is solved.

bbdcf6dde9 A more sophisticated RAS protection delay. 
Saturate down, and also predict with old push value if there is more
than 6 cycles of delay.

064cd22114 Inteligently delay Decode (for up to 8 cycles) if we encounter a pop

75d1afe8b4 Only push to RAS when the linking instruction is non-speculative. 
That is, don't push in Decode, push from the training structure coming
from Execute, which is delayed until the instruction that issued it is
non-speculative.

01132d165a Enable tracing of physical addresses for RVFI (if PADDR_RVFI is 
defined).
This is done by adding a vector of padder lookup interfaces to the load
store queue.
This should help with targeted memory translation debugging, and also
with compatability with the current Sail RVFI implemenation which is
probably incorrect with respect to the RVFI spec which calls for virtual
addresses in the maddr field.

a56deab46c Simpelest strategy for making wrongSpec not conflict with loads of 
rules.
This triggers some assertions in the ROB what should be dealt with
properly if this is going to work.

e497091e18 A timing optimisation for the direction predictor. 
Add a "nextPc" interface so that lookup can begin in the previous cycle.
Remove the "pc" operands in the vector of lookup interfaces,
but rather derive the PC from lookup from the first PC being looked up
in that cycle. That is, by adding 4*(interface number) to the beginning
lookup PC.  As this might not actually be the PC of the instruction,
pass the index you used with the training info so that you are certain
to train with the same index you looked up.

This has less than 1% overhead in CoreMark.

This is a general improvement for reasonable timing which should be upstreamed.

37f6dbde93 Timing optimisation for Tournament Predictor. 
Start global-history-indexed lookups in the previous cycle.
This is a general timing optimisation that should be pushed upstream at
some point.

e600fd7d38 Delay BTB update by a cycle for timing. 
This should not be a primary degredation of performance since the
redirection gets on seperately from this update which will only affect
future predictions.

f619f4b0a1 Make the associative BTB compressed. 
That is, only store the bottom 16 bits of the target if the upper bits
of pc and nextPc match.
Have a single "way" dedicated to full targets.

4cc86b1e56 Revert more changes to buffer speculative training, as previous 
buffering of training from execute should be sufficient for the BTB as
well.

34c6ee1894 Specifically give priority to wrong_spec when they conflict. 
This appears to yield 10% performance improvement as our default setup
appears to choose a wrong priority.
