mem: Add static latency to the DRAM controller
This patch adds a frontend and backend static latency to the DRAM
controller by delaying the responses. Two parameters expressing the
frontend and backend contributions in absolute time are added to the
controller, and the appropriate latency is added to the responses when
adding them to the (infinite) queued port for sending.
For writes and reads that hit in the write buffer, only the frontend
latency is added. For reads that are serviced by the DRAM, the static
latency is the sum of the pipeline latencies of the entire frontend,
backend and PHY. The default values are chosen based on having roughly
10 pipeline stages in total at 500 MHz.
In the future, it would be sensible to make the controller use its
clock and convert these latencies (and a few of the DRAM timings) to
cycles.
