mem: fix assertion in respondEvent
Assertion in the respondEvent erroneously fired.
The assertion verifies that the controller has not moved to a low-power
state prior to receiving read data from the memory.
The original assertion triggered if the state was not:
PWR_IDLE or PWR_ACT.
In the case that failed, a periodic refresh event occurred around the
read. The REF is stalled until the final read burst is issued
and the subsequent PRE closes the bank. While the PRE will temporarily
move the state to PWR_IDLE, state will immediately transition to PWR_REF
due to the pending refresh operation. This state does not match the
assertion, which is subsequently triggered.
Fixed the assertion by explicitly checking that the state is not a low
power state
!PWR_SREF && !PWR_PRE_PDN && !PWR_ACT_PDN
