2ecea2ef60 Don't use a pipe queue on D$ TL A-channel
This cuts an I$->D$ path.

e140893a01 Use 1-entry queue on processor-side E-channel
The cache can't sink a grant every cycle, so extra E buffering doesn't help.

d811692c3b Mitigate I$->D$->I$ critical path
This seemingly irrelevant change shaves several gate delays off the I$
tl.a.valid path.

eadf4e9fcc Revert "tile: add option for tile boundary buffers"
This reverts commit b64b87ad07.

The crossings already have buffering in those places where it was
appropriate. Adding more does not help flow through paths.

2e8b02e780 Merge D$ store hits when ECC is enabled

838864870e Bypass TLB refill signal to halve L2 TLB hit time
The 4-cycle hit time is 1 cycle too long to avoid a second
pipeline replay, so it was effectively 9 cycles instead of 4.

ae1f7a95f6 Don't nack misses when there's a pending store
That effectively increased the miss latency by 5 cycles when there was
a store hit followed by a load miss.  Since pending stores are drained
when releaseInFlight, the check I removed was redundant.

These cases exist:

  UNCACHED && !supportsAcquire: speculation ok and may be cached
  UNCACHED && supportsAcquire: LLC/CacheCork applied (slave never probes)
  CACHED, TRACKED && supportsAcquire: slave might probe

9804bdc34e tilelink: remove obsolete addr_lo signal (#895)
When we first implemented TL, we thought this was helpful, because
it made WidthWidgets stateless in all cases. However, it put too
much burden on all other masters and slaves, none of which benefitted
from this signal. Furthermore, even with addr_lo, WidthWidgets were
information lossy because when they widen, they have no information
about what to fill in the new high bits of addr_lo.
