The idea of hard misc cells on an fpga is to save LUTs and power
compared to using softcores.  That lets you use a smaller and cheaper
fpga.  The early FPGA's were just wall to wall LUTs, I think.  Now they
have hard cells for frequently used specialized functions: RAM blocks,
DSP slices, and more recently ARM processor cores.  For many purposes
ARM is overkill though, and misc is enough.  Or there could be an ARM
with some satellite MISCs.  Things like UART's that are done with hard
logic on lots of SOC's might be reasonable to do with misc cells
instead, if there is a precise clock signal available (a frequent
roadblock for the GA stuff).
