Lars-Peter Clausen d72fac4b1e Add missing timescale annotations
For consistent simulation behavior it is recommended to annotate all source
files with a timescale. Add it to those where it is currently missing.

Laszlo Nagy eb40b42c88 axi_dmac: preparation work for reporting length of partial transfers
Length of partial transfers are stored in a queue for SW reads.
The presence of partial transfer is indicated by a status bit.

The reporting can be enabled by a control bit.

The progress of any transfer can be followed by a debug register.

Lars-Peter Clausen 8ddcffcafc axi_dmac: Enforce transfer length and stride alignments
In its current implementation the DMAC requires that the length of a
transfer is aligned to the widest interface. E.g. if the widest interface
is 128 bits wide the length of the transfer needs to be a multiple of 16
bytes.

If the requested length is not aligned to the interface width it will be
rounded up.

This works fine as long as both interfaces have the same width. If they
have different widths it is possible that the length is rounded up to
different values on the source and destination side. In that case the DMA
will deadlock because the transfer lengths don't match and either not enough
of too much data is delivered from the source to the destination side.

Currently it is up to software to make sure that such an invalid
configuration is not possible.

Also enforce this requirement in the DMAC itself by setting the LSBs of the
transfer length to a fixed 1 so that the length is always aligned to the
widest interface.

Software can also use this to discover the length alignment requirement, by
first writing a zero to the length register and then reading the register
back. The LSBs of the read back value will be non-zero indicating the
alignment requirement.

In a similar way the stride needs to be aligned to the width of its
respective interface, so the generated addresses stay aligned. Enforce this
in the same way by keeping the LSBs cleared.

Increment the minor version number to reflect these changes.

Lars-Peter Clausen ef3687e99d axi_dmac: Split register map into separate sub-module
Split the register map code into a separate sub-module instead of having it
as part of the top-level axi_dmac.v file.

This makes it easier to component test the register map behavior
independently from the DMA transfer logic.
