mem: Cleanup flow for uncacheable accesses

This patch simplifies the code dealing with uncacheable timing
accesses, aiming to align it with the existing miss handling. Similar
to what we do in atomic, a timing request now goes through
Cache::access (where the block is also flushed), and then proceeds to
ignore any existing MSHR for the block in question. This unifies the
flow for cacheable and uncacheable accesses, and for atomic and timing.
