Memory Controller
For writes to SRAM, if all byte enables are turned off (masking out the data, DQM = 1111), then
the write enable are 1 (nWE = 1) for this write beat. This can result in a period when nCS is
asserted, but neither nOE nor nWE is asserted. This happens with a write of 1 beat to SRAM, but
all byte enables are turned off.
