I added it for informational purposes more than anything else.
The contents of this file match the 22.03 reference design for
the icicle kit's FPGA fabric & an older version of the design
may not have the i2c or pwm devices.

I did not add one for the polarberry b/c it has (to my knowledge)
no versioning scheme nor fabric peripherals in the design given
to customers.

Thanks,
Conor.
