In your private source you can if you meet the licensing terms. The BSP
in RTEMS does not need to include the file. We have some defaults in the
BSP and we provide weak symbol versions of functions you ovverride in
your application/BSP to specialise.

It has licensing issues.

The Xilinx BSP license restricts what can be done with those files. We
cannot include the code from them in our public repos.

Another issue with xparameters.h and related files is they change
between Xilinx tools/SDK versions. The less we depend on them the better.
