misc: Coupling gem5 with SystemC TLM2.0
Transaction Level Modeling (TLM2.0) is widely used in industry for creating
virtual platforms (IEEE 1666 SystemC). This patch contains a standard compliant
implementation of an external gem5 port, that enables the usage of gem5 as a
TLM initiator component in SystemC based virtual platforms. Both TLM coding
paradigms loosely timed (b_transport) and aproximately timed (nb_transport) are
supported.

Compared to the original patch a TLM memory manager was added. Furthermore, the
transaction object was removed and for each TLM payload a PacketPointer that
points to the original gem5 packet is added as an TLM extension.  For event
handling single events are now created.
