The reason for this is that they only pass the block to the cache above without keeping a copy. When all requests are serviced the block is immediately invalidated unless it is dirty, in which case it has to be written back to the memory below. To avoid unnecessary writebacks, this changeset forces mostly exclusive caches to issuse requests that can only fetch clean data when possible.
