I was asserting that the only reason you would defer targets is if
a write came in while you had an outstanding read miss, but there's
another case where you could get a read access after you've snooped
an invalidation and buffered it because it applies to a prior
outstanding miss.
if a prior write miss arrived while an even earlier
read miss was still outstanding.

where we defer a response to a read from a far-away cache A, then later
defer a ReadExcl from a cache B on the same bus as us. We'll assert
MemInhibit in both cases, but in the latter case MemInhibit will keep
the invalidation from reaching cache A. This special response tells
cache A that it gets the block to satisfy its read, but must immediately
invalidate it.

Not so much noise on failed sends, and more complete
info when grepping a trace using an address.

SimObjects not yet updated:
- Process and subclasses
- BaseCPU and subclasses
The SimObject(const std::string &name) constructor was removed. Subclasses
that still rely on that behavior must call the parent initializer as
: SimObject(makeParams(name))

Make sure not to keep processing functional accesses
after they've been responded to.
Also use checkFunctional() return value instead of checking
packet command field where possible, mostly just for consistency.

Turns out DeferredSnoop isn't quite the right bit of info
we needed... see new comment in cache_impl.hh.

If the invalidation beats the upgrade at a lower level
then the upgrade must be converted to a read exclusive
"in the field".
Restructure target list & deferred target list to
factor out some common code.

- Add "deferred snoop" flag to Packet so upper-level caches
can distinguish whether lower-level cache request was
in-service or not at the time of the original snoop.
- Revamp response handling to properly handle deferred snoops
on non-cache-fill requests (i.e. upgrades).
- Make sure forwarded writebacks are kept in write buffer at
lower-level caches so they get snooped properly.

Stats pretty much line up with old code, except:
- bug in old code included L1 latency in L2 miss time, making it too high
- UniCoherence did cache-to-cache transfers even from non-owner caches,
so occasionally the icache would get a block from the dcache not the L2
- L2 can now receive ReadExReq from L1 since L1s have coherence
