Differences between QEMU and real hardware:
- AN385/AN386 remapping of low 16K of memory to either ZBT SSRAM1 or to
block RAM is unimplemented (QEMU always maps this to ZBT SSRAM1, as
if zbt_boot_ctrl is always zero)
+- AN524 remapping of low memory to either BRAM or to QSPI flash is
+ unimplemented (QEMU always maps this to BRAM, ignoring the
+ SCC CFG_REG0 memory-remap bit)
- QEMU provides a LAN9118 ethernet rather than LAN9220; the only guest
visible difference is that the LAN9118 doesn't support checksum
offloading
+- QEMU does not model the QSPI flash in MPS3 boards as real QSPI
+ flash, but only as simple ROM, so attempting to rewrite the flash
+ from the guest will fail
+- QEMU does not model the USB controller in MPS3 boards
