I think that M3 context switch would be mostly OK.
Exception and interrupts model is the same as for M3,
but I have feeling that there exists option to
use some simplified one - but it can be for M1.
But you need to use M0 specific GCC options.
We use GCC for nRF51 Cortex-M0 with next options
arm-none-eabi-gcc -mcpu=cortex-m0 -mthumb --std=gnu99 -Wall -mfloat-abi=soft
Else GCC can use Thumb2 instructions which are not supporeted
by ARMv6-m. For example Thumb instructions CBZ, CBNZ, IT
emitted by GCC for M3 are not supported by M0.
So toolchain rebuild is required for sure.
Best wishes,
Pavel
