Changeset 10323:33baf6c26f18
---------------------------
mem: write streaming support via WriteInvalidate promotion

Support full-block writes directly rather than requiring RMW:
 * a cache line is allocated in the cache upon receipt of a
   WriteInvalidateReq, not the WriteInvalidateResp.
 * only top-level caches allocate the line; the others just pass
   the request along and invalidate as necessary.
 * to close a timing window between the *Req and the *Resp, a new
   metadata bit tracks whether another cache has read a copy of
   the new line before the writeback to memory.
