2016-03-17mem: Create a separate class for the cache write bufferAndreas Hansson
This patch breaks out the cache write buffer into a separate class, without affecting any stats. The goal of the patch is to avoid encumbering the much-simpler write queue with the complex MSHR handling. In a follow on patch this simplification allows us to implement write combining. The WriteQueue gets its own class, but shares a common ancestor, the generic Queue, with the MSHRQueue.
