-------- -------  -----   -------       --------
DMACON     096      W     A D P   DMA control write (clear or set)
DMACONR    002      R     A   P   DMA control (and blitter status) read

                 This register controls all of the DMA channels and
                 contains blitter DMA status bits.

                 BIT#  FUNCTION    DESCRIPTION
                 ----  ---------   -----------------------------------
                 15    SET/CLR     Set/clear control bit. Determines
                                   if bits written with a 1 get set or
                                   cleared.  Bits written with a zero
                                   are unchanged.
