a928a438b8 style: [patch 3/22] reduce include dependencies in some headers
Used cppclean to help identify useless includes and removed them. This
involved erroneously included headers, but also cases where forward
declarations could have been used rather than a full include.

76cd4393c0 sim: Refactor the serialization base class
Objects that are can be serialized are supposed to inherit from the
Serializable class. This class is meant to provide a unified API for
such objects. However, so far it has mainly been used by SimObjects
due to some fundamental design limitations. This changeset redesigns
to the serialization interface to make it more generic and hide the
underlying checkpoint storage. Specifically:

  * Add a set of APIs to serialize into a subsection of the current
    object. Previously, objects that needed this functionality would
    use ad-hoc solutions using nameOut() and section name
    generation. In the new world, an object that implements the
    interface has the methods serializeSection() and
    unserializeSection() that serialize into a named /subsection/ of
    the current object. Calling serialize() serializes an object into
    the current section.

  * Move the name() method from Serializable to SimObject as it is no
    longer needed for serialization. The fully qualified section name
    is generated by the main serialization code on the fly as objects
    serialize sub-objects.

  * Add a scoped ScopedCheckpointSection helper class. Some objects
    need to serialize data structures, that are not deriving from
    Serializable, into subsections. Previously, this was done using
    nameOut() and manual section name generation. To simplify this,
    this changeset introduces a ScopedCheckpointSection() helper
    class. When this class is instantiated, it adds a new /subsection/
    and subsequent serialization calls during the lifetime of this
    helper class happen inside this section (or a subsection in case
    of nested sections).

  * The serialize() call is now const which prevents accidental state
    manipulation during serialization. Objects that rely on modifying
    state can use the serializeOld() call instead. The default
    implementation simply calls serialize(). Note: The old-style calls
    need to be explicitly called using the
    serializeOld()/serializeSectionOld() style APIs. These are used by
    default when serializing SimObjects.

  * Both the input and output checkpoints now use their own named
    types. This hides underlying checkpoint implementation from
    objects that need checkpointing and makes it easier to change the
    underlying checkpoint storage code.

4422d1322a energy: Small extentions and fixes for DVFS handler
These additions allow easier interoperability with and querying from an
additional controller which will be in a separate patch.  Also adding warnings
for changing the enabled state of the handler across checkpoint / resume and
deviating from the state in the configuration.

65cea4708e power: Add basic DVFS support for gem5
Adds DVFS capabilities to gem5, by allowing users to specify lists for
frequencies and voltages in SrcClockDomains and VoltageDomains respectively.
A separate component, DVFSHandler, provides a small interface to change
operating points of the associated domains.

Clock domains will be linked to voltage domains and thus allow separate clock,
but shared voltage lines.

Currently all the valid performance-level updates are performed with a fixed
transition latency as specified for the domain.

Config file example:
...
vd = VoltageDomain(voltage = ['1V','0.95V','0.90V','0.85V'])
tsys.cluster1.clk_domain.clock = ['1GHz','700MHz','400MHz','230MHz']
tsys.cluster2.clk_domain.clock = ['1GHz','700MHz','400MHz','230MHz']
tsys.cluster1.clk_domain.domain_id = 0
tsys.cluster2.clk_domain.domain_id = 1
tsys.cluster1.clk_domain.voltage_domain = vd
tsys.cluster2.clk_domain.voltage_domain = vd
tsys.dvfs_handler.domains = [tsys.cluster1.clk_domain,
                             tsys.cluster2.clk_domain]
tsys.dvfs_handler.enable = True
