---------------------------
ext: Update DRAMPowerThis patch syncs the DRAMPower library of gem5 to the external
one on github (https://github.com/ravenrd/DRAMPower) of which
I am one of the maintainers.The version used is the commit:
90d6290f802c29b3de9e10233ceee22290907ce6
from 30. Oct. 2016.The new version features a bank-wise power estimation.
Furthermore, PASR and Per-Bank Refresh is supported.More Informtation can be found in the following papers:

Going forward, I think we should reconsider how we link other projects in the ext folder. Especially since we're moving to git, I wonder if we could use something like sub repos to get a similar effect without having to pull all of this code into the gem5 repo. I guess the downside to this would be an extra step for users to have to recursively clone the repo.
This comment is not on topic for this patch, sorry. This patch is fine as it is :).
