BranchPred: Take the branch predictor out of O3CPU and make it a stand-alone SimObject. This then allows the same branch predictor to be shared amongst several CPUs. This patch is unfinished. I would like to take the branch predictor out of the inorder CPU as well, but want comments on whether this is the best approach to take first.
