Any further comments on this? It doesn't alter the regressions at all, so I 
would like to commit it, even if we change initiateAcc() to not return a fault 
in the future.

    I'm pretty sure I'm going to use this for my dtlb followed by itlb walk 
issue in the timing simple cpu.



src/cpu/translation.hh
<http://reviews.m5sim.org/r/422/#comment1021>

    It's used right here.



src/sim/tlb.hh
<http://reviews.m5sim.org/r/422/#comment1018>

    All the regressions still pass... This isn't the base tlb object, it's the 
translation object so yes, it's been added to all the cpu models.
