Description
We get a lot of warnings like this in the tracer:
Warning-[IDTS] Ignoring dynamic type sensitivity
../src/lowrisc_ibex_ibex_tracer_0.1/rtl/ibex_tracer.sv, 395
"mnemonic"
Dynamic types used in always_comb, always_latch, always (@*) will be ignored
for the inferred sensitivity list.
Declared at: ../src/lowrisc_ibex_ibex_tracer_0.1/rtl/ibex_tracer.sv, 394
Originating call: ../src/lowrisc_ibex_ibex_tracer_0.1/rtl/ibex_tracer.sv,
