Hi Nico,

thanks for the patch! I planned something like that too for a while. I
think we will either want to make it a broader "create layout file from
existing data structures and probable hardware" or make it an
ichspi-specific programmer option (I am not sure regarding the exact
semantics in that case though... what would this option do if you
specify -w too etc).

I'll integrate my layout patches first and will look back at this then
(don't hold your breath ;).
