Changeset 9680:743cb416df88
---------------------------
mem: Make returning snoop responses occupy response layer

This patch introduces a mirrored internal snoop port to facilitate
easy addition of flow control for the snoop responses that are turned
into normal responses on their return. To perform this, the slave
ports of the coherent bus are wrapped in internal master ports that
are passed as the source ports to the response layer in question.

As a result of this patch, there is more contention for the response
resources, and as such system performance will decrease slightly.
