There is no need to check for sram fill level. If sram is empty, cpu
will go in the wait state till the time data is available from flash.
Also Relying on SRAM fill level only for deciding when the data should be
fetched from the local SRAM is not most efficient approach, particulary
if we are working on high data rates.
It should be noticed that after one SRAM word is collected, the information is
forwarded into system domain and then synchronized into register domain (apb).
If we are using slow APB and AHB clks, SRAM fill level might not be up-to-dated
because of latency cycles needed for synchronization. For example in case we are
getting SRAM fill level equal to 10 locations but in reality there were 2
another words completed and actual level is 12 but information may not be
synchronized yet because of the synchronization latency on APB domain.
