Hard not to like a change that's a net reduction in LOC!


src/mem/cache/write_queue_entry.hh (line 80)
<http://reviews.gem5.org/r/3407/#comment7060>

    Is this 'pkt' field still used?  I'd think not, in which case it should of 
course be deleted.  If it is still used, I'd be curious how, since I'm leery of 
both forwarding the packet down to the next level and keeping a copy of the 
pointer ourselves---makes the ownership situation ambiguous.
