Problem with 'or1200-generic' after updating verilator from 3.882 to 3.890

I can not get 'or1200-generic' to work with Verilator after an update. If complains about: ‘class Vorpsoc_top’ has no member named ‘v’

Keep in mind that the lines of code may be different from what you have in the repository, as I made some changes to the file.

The thing is that verilator changed how the class hierarchy is being set up. I'm not sure exactly how to solve that. From what I've heard, there is a switch that you can use to get the old behaviour, but I haven't looked that up.

The easiest way is to change all references from top->v to top->orpsoc_top in tb.cpp. I have done that locally for mor1kx-generic, but that breaks simulations with older versions of verilator, so I haven't pushed those changes yet
