mem: Fix DRAM draining to ensure write queue is empty

This patch fixes the draining of the SimpleDRAM controller model. The
controller performs buffering of writes and normally there is no need
to ever empty the write buffer (if you have a fast on-chip memory,
then use it). The patch adds checks to ensure the write buffer is
drained when the controller is asked to do so.
