Go ahead and commit it.  We can always revise it.

I wonder if the target read pending port is really necessary.  If a
read comes in, then we get a read address appearing in the TW queue,
and when we pop that, we get the address, and the next word we pop is
the count.  It could be valuable in weird cases where we popped the
read, but it's never been serviced, but we need to make sure we pop
from TW.

One thing to be careful about is retries on PCI.  If it times out, the
bus is released, then the other master retries, which means we get
another request.  I've had to put in logic to ensure that duplicate
requests are not passed on.  We need to make sure it's complete.
