I've been trying to follow this discussion...
Is the problem just that reads don't snoop/flush the write-combining buffer?
Aligned writes that end on an appropriate boundary will leave the write
combining buffer empty.
But if the buffer isn't emptied the PCIe read gets ahead of the PCIe write.
ISTR even x86 requires a fence instruction in some sequence associated
with write-combining writes.
