H A Dcache.hhdiff 11601:382e0637fae0 Fri Aug 12 09:11:00 EDT 2016 Andreas Hansson <andreas.hansson@arm.com> mem: Update mostly exclusive cache policy to cover more cases

This patch changes how the mostly exclusive policy is enforced to
ensure that we drop blocks when we should. As part of this change, the
actual invalidation due to the clusivity enforcement is moved outside
the hit handling, to a separate method maintainClusivity. For the
timing mode that means we can deal with all MSHR targets before taking
any action and possibly dropping the block. The method
satisfyCpuSideRequest is also renamed satisfyRequest as part of this
change (since we only ever see requests from the cpu-side port).
