[AXI] Can AxUser change when valid is asserted

We have a few security blocks along the way and we use Axuser to carry the security settings like Stream ID etc. 

There is a security block in front of masters where they are supposed to change the User bits based on realms.

These security blocks should not add latency and hence do not implement a proper register slice (accept Axi and send Axi)

They combinatorially decide the User bits and send it out on the bus. 

So is it okay that master sends say X and the block inbetween converts that to Y before mapping it to slave.

There is a slight rule we are possibly breaking where AxUser bits changing whilst valid is asserted ? Is that okay.
