Missed for explaining the mode_ctrl bit. Set value 0 to the mode_ctrl
means reset the counter and set the mode to 0.
We have two modes:
mode = 0:
COUNT[11:0] value represents the approximate number of bytes moved
between two ASYNC packet requests
mode = 1:
the bits COUNT[11:7] are used as a power of 2. for example, we could
insert an async packet every 8K data by writing a value 13 to the
COUNT[11:7] field.
