Hi all,

Given that the InOrderCPU is causing confusion, and only ever compiled for
MIPS and SPARC, how would people feel about:

1) Go ahead and remove the two regressions using the model, and also stop
compiling it for MIPS and SPARC. This could be done in the next few weeks
if no one objects. If someone really wants to use MIPS and SPARC in-order
cores I would argue the best path forward is to add support for a branch
delay slot to the MinorCPU.

2) Prune the actual InOrderCPU code early Q1 2015.

3) Rename MinorCPU -> InOrderCPU shortly after (2).

Thoughts around this timeline?
