byte enable checked but not used in memory component

[JoGei]

SystemC-Components/src/components/scc/memory.h

Lines 226 to 232 in cc94c10

	template <unsigned long long SIZE, unsigned BUSWIDTH, unsigned PAGE_ADDR_BITS, bool USE_CYCLES>
	int memory<SIZE, BUSWIDTH, PAGE_ADDR_BITS, USE_CYCLES>::handle_operation(tlm::tlm_generic_payload& trans, sc_core::sc_time& delay) {
	uint64_t adr = trans.get_address();
	uint8_t* ptr = trans.get_data_ptr();
	unsigned len = trans.get_data_length();
	uint8_t* byt = trans.get_byte_enable_ptr();
	unsigned wid = trans.get_streaming_width();

In the memory peripheral, the handle_operation performs a sanity check on the byte enable transaction parameter:

SystemC-Components/src/components/scc/memory.h

Lines 247 to 254 in cc94c10

	if(byt) {
	auto res = std::accumulate(byt, byt + trans.get_byte_enable_length(), 0xff, [](uint8_t a, uint8_t b) { return a | b; });
	if(trans.get_byte_enable_length() != len || res != 0xff) {
	SC_REPORT_ERROR("TLM-2", "generic payload transaction with scattered byte enable not supported");
	trans.set_response_status(tlm::TLM_GENERIC_ERROR_RESPONSE);
	return 0;
	}
	}

In its actual transmission logic, no byte enable is consumed from the data stream. Is this is intentional?
