When the PUTS is issued, I believe the block will enter a transient state.
Look what transition happens when an Ifetch arrives at a block in a
transient state due to replacement?  It probably "recycles" the mandatory
queue...thereby trying to process the Ifetch again in the future (I think
3 cycles is our default recycle latency)

Thanks.
yes, actually It stalls (not recycle) the the mandatory queue. I guess this is for in order requirement (mandatory queue is a FIFO). right?
