SE217 PCIe carrier for PolarFire® based PolarBerry module

SE217 is a PCIe development board for PolarBerry-SoM. It is a simpler version of the SE215 carrier and offers an X1 Gen2 PCIe interface. It includes USB JTAG and UART, through a micro USB connector. The card provides Power GOOD and user LEDs for rapid debugging. A Low Pin Count (LPC) FMC site is also available. The board has an external 12V power input connector so it can be used as an embedded / desktop solution. TJ45 and IO header pins are also onboard.
