In this new hmc configuration we have used the existing components in gem5
mainly [SerialLink] [NoncoherentXbar]& [DRAMCtrl] to define 3 different
architecture for HMC.
Highlights
1- It explores 3 different HMC architectures
2- It creates 4-HMC crossbars and attaches 16 vault controllers with it.
This will connect vaults to serial links
3- From the previous version, HMCController with round robin funtionality
is being removed and all the serial links are being accessible directly
from user ports
4- Latency incorporated by HMCController (in previous version) is being
added to SerialLink

Result of running 'hg m5style --skip-all --fix-control -a'.

This patch changes the name of a bunch of packet flags and MSHR member
functions and variables to make the coherency protocol easier to
understand. In addition the patch adds and updates lots of
descriptions, explicitly spelling out assumptions.
The following name changes are made:
* the packet memInhibit flag is renamed to cacheResponding
* the packet sharedAsserted flag is renamed to hasSharers
* the packet NeedsExclusive attribute is renamed to NeedsWritable
* the packet isSupplyExclusive is renamed responderHadWritable
* the MSHR pendingDirty is renamed to pendingModified
The cache states, Modified, Owned, Exclusive, Shared are also called
out in the cache and MSHR code to make it easier to understand.

This changeset adds a serial link model for the Hybrid Memory Cube (HMC).
SerialLink is a simple variation of the Bridge class, with the ability to
account for the latency of packet serialization. Also trySendTiming has been
modified to correctly model bandwidth.
