[INSTRM-631] Understand/handle SAM FIFO timeouts

Wed, 16 Mar 2022 15:41:22 +0000

Just had this happen, after hundreds of ramps, thousands of reads. Restarting the actor (and thus resetting the ASIC, but not power-cycling anything) fixed the problem. But needs to be figured out. At the very least the timeouts are too long, and a few timeouts in a row should trigger some recovery.
