/*
 * These are the memory types, defined to be compatible with
 * pre-ARMv6 CPUs cacheable and bufferable bits:   XXCB
 * pre-ARMv6 CPUs cacheable and bufferable bits: n/a,n/a,C,B
 * ARMv6+ without TEX remapping, they are a table index.
 * ARMv6+ with TEX remapping, they correspond to n/a,TEX(0),C,B
 *
 * MT type		Pre-ARMv6	ARMv6+ type / cacheable status
 * UNCACHED		Uncached	Strongly ordered
 * BUFFERABLE		Bufferable	Normal memory / non-cacheable
 * WRITETHROUGH		Writethrough	Normal memory / write through
 * WRITEBACK		Writeback	Normal memory / write back, read alloc
 * MINICACHE		Minicache	N/A
 * WRITEALLOC		Writeback	Normal memory / write back, write alloc
 * DEV_SHARED		Uncached	Device memory (shared)
 * DEV_NONSHARED	Uncached	Device memory (non-shared)
 * DEV_WC		Bufferable	Normal memory / non-cacheable
 * DEV_CACHED		Writeback	Normal memory / write back, read alloc
 * VECTORS		Variable	Normal memory / variable
 *
 * All normal memory mappings have the following properties:
 * - reads can be repeated with no side effects
 * - repeated reads return the last value written
 * - reads can fetch additional locations without side effects
 * - writes can be repeated (in certain cases) with no side effects
 * - writes can be merged before accessing the target
 * - unaligned accesses can be supported
 *
 * All device mappings have the following properties:
 * - no access speculation
 * - no repetition (eg, on return from an exception)
 * - number, order and size of accesses are maintained
 * - unaligned accesses are "unpredictable"
