Avoids going over the atomic write size while waiting for enough entries to write to IPC pipe. If we find we went over, we just write till the last ok-to-split ref.
tool.drcachesim.scattergather-x86 worked fine 100x on local workstation with this fix.
This issue manifests on this test because some scatter-gather instruction has eight consecutive memrefs which puts us over the threshold suddenly without any opportunity to write the buffer before all the memrefs.
