Just figured that the McPAT parser script looks for the components "niu",
"pcie" and "flashcontroller", which were not present in the XML file
generated from the m5-mcpat-parser-se.py. After adding some dummy
components for these, the processing moves forward, hitting floating point
exception, probably because of some unexpected value for these components.
I will try to debug using gdb.

I wanted to check if anyone knows how one could generate valid entries for
niu, pcie and flashcontroller in the xml file ?
