Hey Giacomo,

First of all, we'll keep the staging branch there for as long as you need.
Though once merged into the master, the staging and the master should be
identical (so I'm not really sure what the point is?).

I actually released gem5 20 last night and was going to send out an email
this morning (if you look closely you'll see gem5 20 tagged on the master
branch). However, since this appears urgent, I'll postpone my announcement
and quietly merge in your changes.

I think it goes without saying that this really needs to be the last thing
we let into gem5 20.

Kind regards,
Bobby
