mem: Add support for cache maintenance operation requests
This change adds new packet cmds and request flags for cache maintenance operations. 1) A cache clean operation writes dirty data in the first memory below the specified xbar and updates any old copies in the memories above it. 2) A cache invalidate operation invalidates all copies of the specified block in the memories above the specified xbar 3) A clean and invalidate operation is a combination of the two operations above Change-Id: If45702848bdd568de532cd57cba58499e5e4354c Reviewed-by: Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Curtis Dunham <curtis.dunham@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Anouk Van Laer <anouk.vanlaer@arm.com> Reviewed-on: https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/5047 Maintainer: Nikos Nikoleris <nikos.nikoleris@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Jason Lowe-Power <jason@lowepower.com>
