ERRCNT[23:0]:
ERRCNT[23:0] contain the error counter holding register. The value in this register
represents the number of bit errors that have been accumulated since the last accumulation
interval, up to a maximum (saturation) value of 224-1. Note that bit errors are not accumulated
while the pattern detector is out of sync.
The Error Count registers for each individual PRBS generator/checker are updated by writing
to any one of the Error count registers. Alternatively, the Error Count registers are updated
with all other octant counter registers by writing to the Line Interface Interrupt Source #1 /
PMON Update register.
