[f-cpu] Interim solution to prototype the core



Sorry for the delay...

I just noticed this awesome new kit :
http://www.microsemi.com/products/fpga-soc/design-resources/dev-kits/smartfusion2/smartfusion2-starter-kit
This is pretty close to the kind of "guest modules" intended for the F-GPU system !
Ideally, a M2S050T is preferred because the M2S010T has less gates and,
more importantly, less internal RAM blocks (F-CPU is very memory hungry !). The board contains only one LPDDR bus, the M2S050T could use two to double the bandwidth but this problem is already half solved. Using one is already complex enough ;-) When the VHDL code works on the kit, someone might be able to design and build a PCB with several BGA chips to provide much more memory
and bandwidth...

What do you guys think ?
