Wondering if there is any possibility of getting positive values for
"(mmcra & POWER7_MMCRA_DCACHE_SRC_MASK) >> POWER7_MMCRA_DCACHE_SRC_SHIFT"
when the marked instruction did not have MMCRA[POWER7_MMCRA_DCACHE_MISS]
bit set. In that case we should actually compute dsrc->val as in the previous
case. I did couple of experiments on a P7 box, but was not able to find a
instance for a marked instruction whose MMCRA[POWER7_MMCRA_DCACHE_MISS] bit
not set and have a positive value POWER7_MMCRA_DCACHE_SRC field.
