---------------------------
misc: Clean up and complete the gem5<->SystemC-TLM bridge [10/10]

The current TLM bridge only provides a Slave Port that allows the gem5 world to
send request to the SystemC world. This patch series refractors and cleans up
the existing code, and adds a Master Port that allows the SystemC world to send
requests to the gem5 world.

This patch:
* Add callbacks for the Gem5SimControl that are called at before and after
simulate()

Testing Done

How does this relate to init/initState/startup for SimObjects (http://gem5.org/SimObject_Initialization)? I'm not very familiar with the System-C bindings. Does this object live fully in the System-C world?

Yes, this object is a pure SystemC object. It derives from Gem5SystemC::Module defined in util/systemc/sc_module.hh which in turn is a sc_module (or sc_channel with patch 3774). SystemC has a buit-in mechanism for callbacks before and after the SystemC-simulation. However, I find it very useful to have hooks at the beginning and end of the gem5 simulation in SystemC.
