Raptor Engineering Development Team fcb783a0fb Extend LiteDRAM VHDL wrapper to allow more than one clock line
This is necessary for the upcoming Arctic Tern system enablement,
since Arctic Tern uses two DRAM devices and a separate clock line
is routed to each device.  LiteX handles this behavior correctly,
therefore we assume other hardware exists that uses a similar
DRAM clock design.

Updates from Mikey to fix some compile issues.

Paul Mackerras ca4eb46aea Make wishbone addresses be in units of doublewords or words
This makes the 64-bit wishbone buses have the address expressed in
units of doublewords (64 bits), and similarly for the 32-bit buses the
address is in units of words (32 bits).  This is to comply with the
wishbone spec.  Previously the addresses on the wishbone buses were in
units of bytes regardless of the bus data width, which is not correct
and caused problems with interfacing with externally-generated logic.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt bedc9c0085 litedram: l2: Add a few comments about litedram behaviour
litedram ignores a couple of signals of his "pseudo-axi" port,
this adds a bit of documentation around it.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 02abb135a8 litedram: l2: Add support for more geometries
Make the DRAM data lines and user port width configurable, also
don't hard wire dependency on the wishbone data width.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 1441b2a859 litedram: l2: Latency improvements
This implements in the L2 cache the feature already in the L1s
allowing a request to be completed before the end of a refill
using partial line valid bits, and starting a refill from the
row of the first miss on that line instead of the beginning of
the line.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 15467fe536 litedram: L2 use latched refill_index
Not a huge difference since wb_req is itself a latch but
may as well

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 05bbbf0772 litedram: Pipeline store acks in L2
There is a long timing path to generate the ack signal from
the L2 cache as it's fully combinational for stores, including
signals coming from litedram.

Instead, pipeline the store acks. This will introduce a cycle
latency but should improve timing. Also the core will eventually
be smart enough not to wait for store acks to complete them anyway.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt b58ff724f6 litedram: Add stash buffer to the L2 cache wishbone interface
This breaks the long stall signal coming back to the processor
and helps improve overall timing.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt b23fd6c5f1 litedram: Defer clearing of tags & valids to improve timing
Currently, there's a huge mux gathering the output of all the PLRUs
to select the victim way on cache miss. This is fed combinationally
into the clearing of the valid and tags.

In order to help timing, let's store it instead and perform the
clearing on the next cycle. The L2 doesn't respond to requests
when not in IDLE state so this should have no negative effects.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt a93d9e77c9 litedram: Remove remnants of riscv-inits
We still had some wires bringing an extra serial port out of
litedram for the built-in riscv processor. This is all gone now
so take them out.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt b0e15f2fb5 litedram: Make the L2 twice as tall
This increases the number of L2 lines from 32 to 64. The BRAM usage is the
same as they were only half used. There's an increase in LUTs and registers
due to the extra tags and valid bits, but none of it should be in a
space constrained or critical timing path.

We could make it wider instead (256 bytes lines) which would reduce usage
instead, but this increases the latency by 8 cycles. Something to consider
once the L2 is capable of early response on miss and starting reloads
from any point in a line.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 599fad117b litedram: Remove old "VexRiscV" based initializations
Support for this has bitrotted and would require refactoring of L2 to
be brought back. It's also not really needed anymore now that we ship
pre-generated litedram and that LiteX supports what we do.

So take it out, which simplifies some of the scripts as well. This also
fixes up CSR alignment the sim model.
