SerDes/PCS Block Latency
Table 12.1 provides transmit and receive latencies respectively in the SerDes, as well as different stages inside the PCS.
The latency is in number of parallel word clocks.

Notes:
Enabled in multi-lane mode. Otherwise, disabled.
The actual value should be added with the max_skew between two different lanes.
The actual value should be added with one EPCS clock cycle.
The actual value should be added with three ECPS clock cycles.
The actual value should be added with one EPCS clock cycle.
