As far as I know, ros_control is for controlling the robots (simulated or real ones):

gazebo_ros_control is one of the packages gazebo_ros_pkgs:

for adaptation of control to the simulated URDF robot using Gazebo plugins

Simulating a robot's controllers in Gazebo can be accomplished using ros_control and a simple Gazebo plugin adapter. An overview of the relationship between simulation, hardware, controllers and transmissions is shown below:
