Corstone1000 is a collection of IP that would be the basis for an SoC. 
These 2 are FVP and FPGA implementations of corstone1000 with additional 
IP to make them usable (e.g. USB and ethernet). Each one as a whole is 
a one off AIUI. So I don't think they really fit into our board plus SoC 
compatible patten and are fine as-is.
