mem: Ensure DRAM controller is idle when in atomic mode

This patch addresses an issue seen with the KVM CPU where the refresh
events scheduled by the DRAM controller forces the simulator to switch
out of the KVM mode, thus killing performance.

The current patch works around the fact that we currently have no
proper API to inform a SimObject of the mode switches. Instead we rely
on drainResume being called after any switch, and cache the previous
mode locally to be able to decide on appropriate actions.

The switcheroo regression require a minor stats bump as a result.
