Fix a bug to handle the fact that a CPU can send Functional accesses while a sendTiming has not returned in the call stack.
src/mem/cache/base_cache.cc: Sometimes a functional access comes while waiting on a outstanding packet being sent. This could be because Timing CPU does some post processing on the recvTiming which send functional access. Either the CPU should leave the pkt/req around (so They can be referenced in the mem system). Or the mem system should remove them from outstanding lists and reinsert them if they fail in the sendTiming. I did the later, eventually we should consider doing the former if that is the correct behavior. --HG-- extra : convert_revision : be41e0d2632369dca9d7c15e96e5576d7583fe6a
