The aforementioned upgrader in [1] assumes every option in [system]
has a delimiting '.', and also seems to do its rewriting work a bit too
unconditionally. Most checkpoints in the wild don't have this device,
in which case this script should be a safe no-op.

This patch fixes the order that packets gets pushed into the output fifo
of etherswitch. If two packets arrive at the same tick to the etherswitch,
we sort and push them based on their source port id.
In dist-gem5 simulations, if there is no ordering inforced while two
packets arrive at the same tick, it can lead to non-deterministic simulations

Previous ARM-based simulations were limited to 8 cores due to
limitations in GICv2 and earlier. This changeset adds a set of
gem5-specific extensions that enable support for up to 256 cores.
When the gem5 extensions are enabled, the GIC uses CPU IDs instead of
a CPU bitmask in the GIC's register interface. To OS can enable the
extensions by setting bit 0x200 in ICDICTR.
This changeset is based on previous work by Matt Evans.

Adds per-thread interrupt controllers and thread/context logic
so that interrupts properly get routed in SMT systems.

Rewrite the HDLCD controller to use the new DMA engine and pixel
pump. This fixes several bugs in the current implementation:
* Broken/missing interrupt support (VSync, underrun, DMA end)
* Fragile resolution changes (changing resolutions used
to cause assertion errors).
* Support for resolutions with a width that isn't divisible by 32.
* The pixel clock can now be set dynamically.
This breaks checkpoint compatibility. Checkpoints can be upgraded with
the checkpoint conversion script. However, upgraded checkpoints won't
contain the state of the current frame. That means that HDLCD
controllers restoring from a converted checkpoint immediately start
drawing a new frame (i.e, expect timing differences).

This commit addresses gem5 checkpoints' linear versioning bottleneck.
Since development is distributed across many private trees, there exists
a sort of 'race' for checkpoint version numbers: internally a checkpoint
version may be used but then resynchronizing with the external tree causes
a conflict on that version. This change replaces the linear version number
with a set of unique strings called tags. Now the only conflicts that can
arise are of tag names, where collisions are much easier to avoid.
The checkpoint upgrader (util/cpt_upgrader.py) upgrades the version
representation, as one would expect. Each tag version implements its
upgrader code in a python file in the util/cpt_upgraders directory
rather than adding a function to the upgrader script itself.
The version tags are stored in the 'Globals' section rather than 'root'
(as the version was previously) because 'Globals' gets unserialized
first and can provide a warning before any other unserialization errors
can occur.
