Review request for Default.


Changes
-------

Use Param.MemorySize for device_rowbuffer_size.


Repository: gem5


Description
-------

This patch gets rid of bytesPerCacheLine parameter and makes the DRAM 
configuration separate from cache line size. 
Instead of bytesPerCacheLine, I define a parameter for DRAM called 
burst_length. The burst_length parameter shows the length of a DRAM device 
burst in bits.
Also, I replace lines_per_rowbuffer with device_rowbuffer_size to improve code 
portablity.

Updates: 
- a burst length in beats for each memory type.
- an interface width for each memory type.
- the memory controller model is extended to reason about "system" packets vs 
"dram" packets and assemble the responses properly. It means that system 
packets larger than a full burst are split into multiple dram packets.
