I never quite worked out where the timer functions belongs,
some have them in interupts.c and some in their own file.
Some have them cpu/ and some in lib/

Well, yes, FPGAs are probably the most common case, but also ASIC
implementations exists.
The extra argument to the nop instruction is ignored by hardware,
but have special meanings when ran in simulation.
