This function is no longer used anywhere in gem5.
Small helper functions which had been put alongside vtophys on ARM and
RISCV were also moved into src/arch/arm/remote_gdb.cc and
src/arch/power/pagetable.hh, the only places they were used.

Information about what kernel to load and how to load it was built
into the System object and its subclasses. That overloaded the System
object and made it responsible for too many things, and also was
somewhat awkward when working with SE mode which doesn't have a kernel.
This change extracts the kernel and information related to it from the
System object and puts into into a OsKernel or Workload object.
Currently the idea of a "Workload" to run and a kernel are a bit
muddled, an unfortunate carry-over from the original code. It's also an
implication of trying not to make too sweeping of a change, and to
minimize the number of times configs need to change, ie avoiding
creating a "kernel" parameter which would shortly thereafter be
renamed to "workload".
In future changes, the ideas of a kernel and a workload will be
disentangled, and workloads will be expanded to include emulated
operating systems which shephard and contain Process-es for syscall
emulation.
This change was originally split into pieces to make reviewing it
easier. Those reviews are here:
