 yehyeh, it's a pain, there being little-to-no documentation: try
#m-labs on irc.freenode.net

basically anything that has an "elaborate" method has to be derived
from "Elaboratable".  you don't need to call __init__ (no need to do
Elaboratable.__init__(self)) - just do:

from nmigen import Elaboratable

class TLB(Elaboratable)

like this:
