Doug, I'm vague about this, but it seems right and it fixes the
bug that I'm running into.

It seems like dcache_invalidate_line needs to remove the block
from the in use list at the same time as adding it to the freed
list.

The problem that bit me was getting the two lists cross-linked,
which eventually led to an infinite loop behavior in dcache_invalidate.

	* dcache.c (dcache_invalidate_line): Remove block from used list
	when adding it to freed list.
