mem-cache: Fix increasing replacement count
Replacements should be increased when there is any evicted block, which does not necessarily have to be the victim. For example, assume a superblock contains 4 blocks, and both A and C are stored compressed (belonging to SB_1). Then F, from SB2 needs to make room by replacing SB1. If F map to location 2, the number of replacements should be increased, even though 2 had no valid blocks: Tag Data Tag Data |SB_1|--|A|X|C|X| --> |SB_2| |X|F|X|X| 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 Change-Id: I7b3735d28a35faa8d8fa613a1555bb258da65859 Signed-off-by: Daniel R.
