mem: Determine if an MSHR does a whole-line write
This patch adds support for determining whether the targets in an MSHR
are 1) only writes and 2) whether these writes are effectively a
whole-line write. This patch adds the necessary functions in the MSHR
to allow for write coalescing in the cache.
