This configuation script shows an example of how to restore a checkpoint that
was taken for SimPoints in the
configs/example/gem5_library/checkpoints/simpoints-se-checkpoint.py.
The SimPoints, SimPoints interval length, and the warmup instruction length
are passed into the SimPoint module, so the SimPoint object will store and
calculate the warmup instruction length for each SimPoints based on the
avaliable instructions before reaching the start of the SimPoint. With the
Simulator module, exit event will be generated to stop when the warmup session
ends and the SimPoints interval ends.

This scipt builds a more complex board than the board used for taking
checkpoint.
