dcache BUG()

I've been running with Gabriel's suggested patch for about an hour now, and
I still see the problem.  It hasn't generated an Oops in dcache.h yet, but I
do still see the 'de_put: entry net already free!' messages.

I'll let it run overnight to see if the oops occurs.

I'm convinced, too, so thanks for the suggestion.  I think it is
much more likely to show up on the 4xx because of my (assumed)
implementation than on other processors that attempt to make some
use of the EA in the instructions.

We have many people testing on a variety of systems, so we will
know more shortly.

Thanks again.
