Giacomo Travaglini 98c4719d79 dev-arm: Fix checkpointing for the GenericTimer
The revamp of the GenericTimer was not taking into account:

* The name of the variable will be printed on the checkpoint to label the
data. It is not possible to use different variable names when
serializing/unserializing, and it is not possible to use the same
temporary variable to serialize/unserialize different values.

* the serializeSection is creating a new sub section in the
checkpoint. Doing the following:

void
GenericTimerFrame::serialize(CheckpointOut &cp) const
{
    physTimer.serializeSection(cp, "phys_timer");
    virtTimer.serializeSection(cp, "virt_timer");
    SERIALIZE_SCALAR(accessBits);
}

will serialize the accessBits under the virt_timer subsection
rather than the parent generic_timer_frame.

This is the gem5 simulator.

The main website can be found at http://www.gem5.org

A good starting point is http://www.gem5.org/about, and for
more information about building the simulator and getting started
please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation and
http://www.gem5.org/documentation/learning_gem5/introduction.

To build gem5, you will need the following software: g++ or clang,
Python (gem5 links in the Python interpreter), SCons, SWIG, zlib, m4,
and lastly protobuf if you want trace capture and playback
support. Please see http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building
for more details concerning the minimum versions of the aforementioned tools.

Once you have all dependencies resolved, type 'scons
build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one of ARM, NULL, MIPS, POWER, SPARC,
or X86. This will build an optimized version of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt)
for the the specified architecture. See
http://www.gem5.org/documentation/general_docs/building for more details and
options.

The basic source release includes these subdirectories:
   - configs: example simulation configuration scripts
   - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5
   - src: source code of the gem5 simulator
   - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems
   - tests: regression tests
   - util: useful utility programs and files

To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled system firmware
(console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk
images.

If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org

Enjoy using gem5 and please share your modifications and extensions.
