RegField.bytes updates only those bytes which are written every cycle.
However, there was a bug that it would try to return the updated value on reads.
This led to another TL-spec violating combinational path, just like the Debug module.
When passed a Wire, WNotify outputs that wire on reads wire => d_bits.
Furthermore, it updates the Wire when a write occures d_ready => wire.
These registers should be returning undefined value on read, anyway.
This esoteric bug manifests if a tag-read error occurs when a FENCE.I is
executed, even if the error was correctable. Subsequently, an attempt to
flush a dirty line may flush the wrong line's data.

Putting the common DTS nodes into a shared object makes them get
emitted only one time. Plus it's better style.
timebase-frequency should really have been in the cpu nodes in the
first place according to the spec anyway. I was foolishly trying to
save bytes. However, now we really want it there in case it differs.
Deallocation can change repl_way, which violates the assumption that it
remains constant throughout refill.
The workaround described in commit 3db066303b
still suffices, provided only the hart that owns the ITIM changes the ITIM
allocation.
This subsumes commit 3db066303b.
...instead of on the master side of the system bus.
People inheriting from HasTileMasterPort might need to add
`masterNode := tileBus.node` to their Tile child class.
* debug: Update macros from spec
* debug: some corrections in the auto-generated files
* debug: update renamed fields
* Debug: implement the implicit ebreak option for small program buffers
* debug: clean up some unused code and add more require() explanations
* debug: make implicit ebreak false
* debug: Add the havereset/haveresetack functionality
* debug: program buffer can still be 16 even if there is an implicit ebreak
This is a follow-up to PR #1108.
Rather than increasing the number of transactions we allow to be inflight,
instead just block TL when early source re-use happens. This is a better
fix since it means we don't pay mostly wasted downstream hardware to handle
an additional transaction inflight that almost never happens.
* TLToAXI4: fix WaR for single-source FIFO masters
* TLToAXI4: fix potential counter overflow => WaR hazard
If you have a FIFO master with 2^n-1 sources that performs early
source re-use, the old code could potentially break FIFO order.
